Amelia Risk vs Embroker: How Do They Compare for Product Liability Insurance?

Amelia Risk lists product liability as a policy to consider for its CPG (food, beverage and cosmetic) and consumer-product clients, describing the product itself as the client's main source of exposure. ^1,2Company-reported. CPG and Consumer Products specialty pages' "policies to consider" lists; a marketed topic for those segments, not a stated underwriting eligibility rule.

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. ⁴Company-reported. Product-page 'Who Is It For?' section; not a guarantee of coverage for a particular business.

Amelia Risk's stated process for arranging coverage, including product liability, starts with gathering information about the company, then approaching multiple insurers, reviewing the resulting quotes with the client, and letting the client decide how to proceed. ³Company-reported. Specialties page's four numbered steps; describes the firm's general placement workflow, not a product-liability-specific application form.

Embroker says applicants can get a product liability quote in under 10 minutes through its digital platform and choose their own deductibles and limits. ⁴Company-reported. Product-page 'Why Get It With Embroker?' section; no quote was requested during this research.

Amelia Risk describes product liability as protection against claims of bodily injury or property damage caused by the client's covered products. ¹Company-reported. CPG page's product liability paragraph; a general explanation of the coverage type, not a specimen policy form or specific insurer's wording. Appears only on specialty pages, not a dedicated product-liability page.

Amelia Risk says product liability and product recall are separate policies that can both respond to the same contaminated-product event: product liability covers third-party bodily-injury or property-damage claims, while product recall pays the costs of pulling the product from the market. ¹Company-reported. CPG page FAQ 2, "Is product recall covered under product liability?" A general distinction between coverage types, not policy-specific wording.

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. ⁴Company-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). ⁴Company-reported. Product-page What's Not Covered section, distinguishing product liability from general liability, product recall insurance and technology E&O.

Amelia Risk arranges product liability coverage as a brokerage, placing the policy with an insurer rather than underwriting it itself; no product-liability-specific product page names an issuing insurer. ³Company-reported. General brokerage process from the Specialties page, applied here because product liability has no dedicated product page on the site.

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. ⁴Company-reported. Product-page description and 'Tips for Saving' section; not a statement about the issuing insurer.
