What is Inland Marine Insurance for Manufacturers?

Inland Marine Insurance covers property while it is being transported over land (by truck, rail, or other ground transportation) and certain types of mobile or specialized property. 

For manufacturers, this typically covers raw materials in transit to your facility, equipment being moved, and finished goods being shipped to customers.

Why it Matters for Manufacturers

Your products and materials are exposed to risk every time they leave your facility or travel to it—from accidents and theft to weather damage and loading dock incidents.

Standard property insurance typically stops at your building walls, leaving goods in transit unprotected. 

Inland Marine coverage fills this critical gap, ensuring your raw materials, finished goods, and equipment are protected throughout transportation. 

With increasing reliance on just-in-time delivery and distribution across wider geographic areas, this coverage is essential for protecting your supply chain and customer relationships.
