The two primary components of an ISR policy are material damage and business interruption cover. Material damage protects property against perils like fire, natural disasters, theft, or accidental damage, while business interruption cover ensures that the business remains financially stable by covering loss of income resulting from property damage.

ISR insurance is particularly relevant for businesses such as manufacturers, warehouses, logistics firms, aged care providers, healthcare providers, and hospitality operations, where the scale and complexity of assets demand enhanced protection.

  • Machinery Breakdown
    Essential for operations relying on critical equipment. This coverage helps minimize the impact of unexpected machinery failures, and for more complex operations, we offer specialized engineering solutions.

  • Business Interruption
    In the event of fire, floods, storms, or supply chain disruptions, this coverage helps offset the financial losses, allowing your business to continue operations or recover swiftly.

  • Theft
    Provides coverage for the loss of contents and stock due to theft, whether from external parties or employees.

  • Defined Perils: Fire, Explosion, Storms, Lightning, Earthquake, Impact, Theft, Vandalism/Malicious Damage, Escape of Water etc

  • Accidental damage: Provides cover for unexpected and accidental damage to property not caused by any specific peril.

  • Flood (optional): if elected, covers damage to a property due to the rising of water from a lake, river, or other watercourse that submerges normally dry land. It typically occurs when water levels exceed the capacity of the waterway

ISR coverage can also be tailored by endorsement to meet the intricate needs of your business, ensuring that specific exposures unique to your industry or operations are comprehensively addressed. This customisation allows for coverage extensions such as machinery breakdown, accidental damage, and flood, providing a tailored safety net for complex businesses.
