[Human-readable page](https://spot.insure/insurance-providers/cfc/product-liability) # CFC Product Liability Insurance CFC Life Science and Nutraceuticals CFC sells product liability only inside its life science and nutraceuticals package policies, not as a standalone product-liability product. [1](https://www.cfc.com/en-us/products/industry/life-science/ "Life science") (Evidence: Company-reported; scope: Life science product page, which lists life sciences and nutraceuticals as the two package policies covering products/completed operations exposure.) ## Issuing Insurer - **Not publicly disclosed.** The reviewed life science and nutraceuticals brochures describe CFC as the policy designer and point of contact but do not name the insurer that carries the product-liability risk for either package. [1](https://www.cfc.com/en-us/products/industry/life-science/ "Life science") [2](https://www.cfc.com/media/wkmj1iye/life-science_product-brochure_us_1125.pdf "Life science | Product brochure | United States") [3](https://www.cfc.com/media/t2rb3tq3/nutraceuticals_product-brochure_us_1125.pdf "Nutraceuticals | Product brochure | United States") (Scope: Life science page and both brochures as read on 2026-09-23. CFC's own materials describe it as an underwriting manager rather than a risk-bearing insurer, so a specific carrier for either package would need to come from the quote or declarations.) ## Who It’s For - For the life science package, CFC says it considers companies importing, manufacturing, distributing or leasing tangible products, implantable and non-implantable devices, and software as a medical device, but ordinarily declines products such as hip and knee replacement kits, infusion devices, implantable silicone, and breast implants. [2](https://www.cfc.com/media/wkmj1iye/life-science_product-brochure_us_1125.pdf "Life science | Product brochure | United States") (Evidence: Company-reported; scope: Life science brochure's "Products we consider" and "What we ordinarily decline" lists; actual acceptance depends on individual underwriting.) - For the nutraceuticals package, CFC says its appetite covers products like energy drinks, weight-loss or weight-gain products, functional health products and cosmetics, but ordinarily declines products containing or derived from kratom or colloidal silver, or with excessively high stimulant levels. [3](https://www.cfc.com/media/t2rb3tq3/nutraceuticals_product-brochure_us_1125.pdf "Nutraceuticals | Product brochure | United States") (Evidence: Company-reported; scope: Nutraceuticals brochure's "What we like" and "What we ordinarily decline" lists; actual acceptance depends on individual underwriting.) ## Coverage Features - Both packages cover legal expenses and compensation for bodily injury or property damage claims arising from use, ingestion, or (for life science) implantation of the insured's product, alongside product recall costs for government-enforced recalls, with voluntary recall available as an extension. [2](https://www.cfc.com/media/wkmj1iye/life-science_product-brochure_us_1125.pdf "Life science | Product brochure | United States") [3](https://www.cfc.com/media/t2rb3tq3/nutraceuticals_product-brochure_us_1125.pdf "Nutraceuticals | Product brochure | United States") (Evidence: Company-reported; scope: Life science and nutraceuticals brochures' "Commercial general liability"/"Products and completed operations" and "Product recall" sections; exact wording and exclusions are set by the policy as issued.) ## Limits and Retentions - CFC's brochures list a maximum products-liability limit of $15 million on a claims-made basis and $7 million on an occurrence basis for both the life science and nutraceuticals packages. [2](https://www.cfc.com/media/wkmj1iye/life-science_product-brochure_us_1125.pdf "Life science | Product brochure | United States") [3](https://www.cfc.com/media/t2rb3tq3/nutraceuticals_product-brochure_us_1125.pdf "Nutraceuticals | Product brochure | United States") (Evidence: Company-reported; scope: "Limits and minimum premiums" sections of both brochures; the limit actually issued depends on underwriting.) ## How to Apply - CFC publishes separate application forms for life science products/software and for nutraceuticals, so the underwriting intake differs by package even though both share the same product-liability grant. [1](https://www.cfc.com/en-us/products/industry/life-science/ "Life science") (Evidence: Company-reported; scope: Life science product page's downloads list.) ## Claims Support - CFC says it has pioneered coverage for nutraceuticals as an emerging risk area and has claims handlers experienced with that sector's product claims. [4](https://www.cfc.com/en-us/claims/ "Claims") (Evidence: Company-reported; scope: CFC's claims page, "Emerging risk" section; a general capability statement with no published nutraceuticals-specific claim volume or outcome data.) ## CFC Product Liability Insurance Compared - [CFC vs Alliance Risk](https://spot.insure/compare/alliance-risk-vs-cfc/product-liability) - [CFC vs Amelia Risk](https://spot.insure/compare/amelia-risk-vs-cfc/product-liability) - [CFC vs Beazley](https://spot.insure/compare/beazley-vs-cfc/product-liability) - [CFC vs Coverdash](https://spot.insure/compare/cfc-vs-coverdash/product-liability) - [CFC vs Embroker](https://spot.insure/compare/cfc-vs-embroker/product-liability) - [CFC vs Founder Shield](https://spot.insure/compare/cfc-vs-foundershield/product-liability) ## Other CFC Coverage Lines - [CFC Commercial Property Insurance](https://spot.insure/insurance-providers/cfc/commercial-property) - [CFC Crime Insurance](https://spot.insure/insurance-providers/cfc/crime) - [CFC Cyber Insurance](https://spot.insure/insurance-providers/cfc/cyber) - [CFC D&O Insurance](https://spot.insure/insurance-providers/cfc/directors-officers) - [CFC Employment Practices Liability Insurance](https://spot.insure/insurance-providers/cfc/employment-practices) - [CFC General Liability Insurance](https://spot.insure/insurance-providers/cfc/general-liability) - [CFC Intellectual Property Insurance](https://spot.insure/insurance-providers/cfc/intellectual-property) - [CFC Kidnap and Ransom Insurance](https://spot.insure/insurance-providers/cfc/kidnap-ransom) - [CFC Management Liability Insurance](https://spot.insure/insurance-providers/cfc/management-liability) - [CFC Media Liability Insurance](https://spot.insure/insurance-providers/cfc/media) - [CFC Product Recall Insurance](https://spot.insure/insurance-providers/cfc/product-recall) - [CFC Professional Liability (E&O) Insurance](https://spot.insure/insurance-providers/cfc/professional-errors-omissions) - [CFC Representations and Warranties Insurance](https://spot.insure/insurance-providers/cfc/representations-warranties) - [CFC Tech E&O Insurance](https://spot.insure/insurance-providers/cfc/technology-errors-omissions) - [CFC Telehealth Insurance](https://spot.insure/insurance-providers/cfc/virtual-care-telehealth) - [CFC Umbrella and Excess Liability Insurance](https://spot.insure/insurance-providers/cfc/umbrella-excess) ## Related - [CFC Profile](https://spot.insure/insurance-providers/cfc) - [CFC Reliability](https://spot.insure/insurance-providers/cfc/reliability) - [CFC Alternatives](https://spot.insure/insurance-providers/cfc/alternatives) - [Coverage Guide: Product liability](https://spot.insure/coverage/product-liability) ## Sources 1.
