Environmental losses can severely disrupt a business leading to potentially devastating financial, operational and reputational damage.
Environmental risk continues to be a challenge for businesses today, but our environmental experts can help protect you against pollution exposures.

You can be protected for current and pre-existing exposures that may not be in your general liability policy. Cover includes clean-up costs, property damage and business interruption.
Our broad Protect policy provides cover against remediation and loss mitigation costs, third-party liability, biodiversity damage and more, for incidents on your own premises or a third party’s.
If you’re a contractor, this policy gives you pollution insurance for projects where it’s required, alternatively we can provide cover for your day-to-day pollution exposures.
We support your pioneering work with the first dedicated environmental policy for renewables companies in the UK and Ireland. Providing seamless coverage, from the start of construction through to their operation.
