Insurer Questions

  • What stainless steel forms, grades and values do you stock?
  • Do you cut, drill, polish, process or only wholesale materials?
  • Do customers collect from a trade counter or yard?
  • Do you use forklifts, cranes, racking, loading equipment or subcontract hauliers?
  • Do you import stock or supply into construction, food-grade or specialist projects?

Stock, Theft and Handling Equipment

Stainless steel stock can hold high values and can involve heavy handling. Insurers may review premises security, yard layout, racking, forklift use, stock controls, driver training and loading procedures.

Products Liability and Goods in Transit

Supplying stainless steel into construction, fabrication, catering equipment or manufacturing projects can create products liability exposure. Delivery practices, quality checks, imports, batch traceability and customer terms should be declared clearly.
