Key Differences in Product Liability Insurance

Embroker offers a standalone policy while many buyers add an endorsement

AIG lists product liability as an aviation solution for aircraft manufacturers and related operations. Embroker says it sells a standalone product-liability policy, while most companies add the coverage to general liability or a business owners policy; larger companies more often buy a separate policy. The choice affects how product claims sit alongside general liability, so request a comparison of the form and aggregate structure. 3 7

Embroker names product defects and the recall gap

Embroker lists bodily injury, property damage, illness and wrongful death from design, manufacturing or labeling defects, but says recall costs are excluded and require a separate endorsement or policy. AIG’s aviation overview does not publish its recall terms. Manufacturers should budget product recall separately and check how each provider handles defect claims. 7 3

What to Confirm in Product Liability Insurance Quotes

  • Ask Embroker whether standalone or endorsed coverage fits your GL program and price recall protection separately. 7
  • Confirm AIG’s covered aviation products, limits and recall wording. 3

AIG vs Embroker: Product Liability Insurance: documented features by provider

CriteriaAIG Aviation Product LiabilityEmbroker Product Liability Insurance
Role in This Line

AIG markets product liability as part of its Aerospace and Aviation insurance practice, specifically for aviation-related product operations. It is not evidence of a broad standalone product liability offer for unrelated sectors. 3Company-reported. Role in this product is limited to the description on the linked AIG source.

Embroker sells product liability as a standalone policy, and says most companies instead add it as an endorsement to a general liability policy or bundle it into a Business Owners Policy, with only larger companies typically buying an independent policy. 7Company-reported. Product-page description and 'Tips for Saving' section; not a statement about the issuing insurer.

Who It’s For

AIG identifies aviation product manufacturers, distributors and maintenance, repair and overhaul operations as audiences for its aviation product liability solutions. The page does not establish eligibility for all product manufacturers. 3Company-reported. Audience is the segment AIG names on the linked source; this is not an underwriting decision, quote or guarantee of availability.

Embroker markets the policy to businesses that manufacture, repair, distribute or sell products, saying manufacturers are most often held liable but sellers and repairers can also be named in claims. 7Company-reported. Product-page 'Who Is It For?' section; not a guarantee of coverage for a particular business.

Coverage Features

AIG lists aviation product liability insurance among aviation liability solutions. It does not publish a buyer’s covered products, legal liability terms, limits or exclusions on this overview page. 3Company-reported. AIG’s public product description is not the policy. Actual entitlement depends on the applicable issued form, endorsements and declarations.

Embroker lists coverage for bodily injury, property damage, illness and wrongful death claims arising from design defects, manufacturing defects, or warning/labeling defects in a product. 7Company-reported. Product-page 'What Does Product Liability Insurance Cover?' section; the issued policy and declarations control.

Embroker says the policy excludes employee injuries (covered by workers' compensation), third-party accidents on the policyholder's property (covered by general liability), product recall costs (which need a separate endorsement or product recall policy), and technology product claims (covered by tech E&O). 7Company-reported. Product-page What's Not Covered section, distinguishing product liability from general liability, product recall insurance and technology E&O.

Limits and Retentions

The aviation page does not publish a product-liability limit for an individual manufacturer or product. Confirm capacity, attachment and policy terms with AIG for the account. 3Not publicly disclosed. This statement reports only what the linked public source discloses and does not substitute for a quote or issued policy.

Embroker says pricing depends heavily on product risk category (for example, pharmaceuticals or firearms cost more than lower-risk goods), company size and revenue, and claims history; it does not publish standard policy limits. 7Company-reported. Product-page 'How Much Does Product Liability Insurance Cost?' section.

Risk Services

AIG describes aviation-focused underwriting and claims adjusters/attorneys, a 24/7 hotline and application materials for aircraft products. These resources do not determine coverage or claim acceptance. 3Company-reported. The linked page describes company-reported support; specific account services and third-party arrangements must be confirmed.
