Start with the real exposure
The wording must match the business behind it
Industrial All Risk insurance can bring major property and business-interruption exposures under a broader programme. “All risk” does not mean every event is covered: exclusions, deductibles, sub-limits, values and warranties remain critical.
For complex plants, Umber focuses on the risk story—processes, utilities, protections, dependencies, accumulation and recovery time—so insurer negotiations are based on more than a schedule of assets.
“A policy works as a programme: values, wording, extensions and claims preparation must support one another.

Buyer questions
Clear answers before you decide
These are starting points. The final answer always depends on the selected insurer’s wording and your disclosed circumstances.
Is IAR better than a standard fire policy?
It can be broader and more integrated, but suitability depends on risk size, complexity, deductibles, exclusions and price. Broader wording is valuable only when sums insured and operational details are correct.
What indemnity period should a factory choose?
It should reflect realistic time to rebuild, replace machinery, obtain approvals, restore suppliers and regain production—not merely the cheapest available option.
Does IAR cover machinery failure?
Internal breakdown may require a machinery breakdown section or separate cover. The exact programme and exclusions must be reviewed.
