Professional Indemnity insurance is a key cover for businesses in a range of industries

Premierline Business Insurance Brokers work with members of the British Furniture Manufacturers Association to ensure your business has the right insurance in place. For many businesses, Professional Indemnity insurance is a key cover that could protect your business in the event of a claim against advice you have given as part of your service.

Ensuring your business is correctly insured can often be seen as a tedious task. That’s why working with Premierline can help take the stress away from arranging your business insurance, leaving you with more time to focus on the important things to hand, such as the daily running of your business.

Within the design industry, having the correct insurance in place is crucial especially in the unlikely event that something does go wrong. Members of the British Furniture Manufacturers Association who are involved in any aspect of product design or offering advice to their clients need to be extra careful, as the advice you give may inadvertently cause loss to your client if the information is wrong or inaccurate. In this instance you could be liable to pay compensation to cover your clients' losses. Professional Indemnity insurance exists to help safeguard your furniture manufacturing business in the case that you give your customer the wrong advice, for example, about suitable materials or designs to be used in a project.
