Learn More about Environmental Liability Insurance

What is environmental insurance?

Pollution insurance provides coverage for businesses against the financial risks associated with environmental damage or pollution incidents. This type of insurance covers the costs of cleanup, legal defense, and third-party claims resulting from pollution caused by your business operations, including spills, leaks, or contamination of air, water, or soil.

Does my business need environmental insurance?

If your business is involved in activities that could potentially cause environmental damage, such as manufacturing, construction, waste management, or any industry dealing with hazardous materials, pollution/environmental insurance is essential. It protects your business from the significant financial consequences of environmental incidents, including cleanup costs, regulatory fines, and legal liabilities.

How do insurance companies determine my rates?

Insurance companies determine pollution insurance rates based on factors such as the nature of your business operations, the types and volumes of hazardous materials you handle, your location, your environmental compliance history, and your past claims. Businesses with higher exposure to environmental risks or those with a history of incidents may face higher premiums.

What enhancements are available on a pollution/environmental policy?

Enhancements to a pollution insurance policy can include coverage for specific risks such as transportation of hazardous materials, on-site and off-site cleanup, underground storage tanks, natural resource damages, and coverage for mold or asbestos. These enhancements allow you to customize your policy to address the specific environmental risks associated with your operations.

What are some claims examples for pollution insurance?

Common claims under pollution insurance include costs related to the cleanup of chemical spills, liability for contamination of neighboring properties, legal defense against claims of environmental damage, and expenses associated with regulatory fines or penalties for non-compliance with environmental laws. These incidents can result in significant financial losses, but a pollution/environmental policy provides the necessary coverage to manage them.

My pollution insurance is with another agent, how do I move it to Titan Risk?
