Why Do You Need Product Recall Insurance?

In recent years, the risk of product recall has risen drastically. There are considerably more regulatory standards and new rules for product safety. For companies, this means more rigorous product quality responsibilities. Mistakes due to human error are inevitable. Product recalls take place practically every day. Very rarely does a day go by without the news of recalled goods for reasons of illness or safety. In fact, thousands of products are recalled each year.

The costs related to a product recall can be excessive. When a product is recalled, a series of high-priced events are set into motion. The cost starts to rise when the product is pulled from the market. With most recalls, the product has to be removed, destroyed and replaced. In addition, media relations experts must often be retained to communicate the recall details to the general public. Lawyers and other professionals are also often retained for interaction with relevant government agencies.

It is not uncommon for a company that experiences a product recall to spend millions of dollars. In some extreme instances, an entire industry can suffer due to the product recall of a single company. All too often, a company fails to invest in Product Recall Insurance because they are under the misconception that it cannot happen to their company. With the high number of product recalls that are announced routinely in the media, it is obvious that no company is immune to such risk. This is true even when they maintain the best operational and manufacturing controls and safely records.
