Engineering, Manufacturing & High Risk

Insurance for Steel Fabricators

SteelSure delivers specialist insurance coverage for the Steel Construction & Engineering industry. Built for installers and erectors of structural and secondary steelwork, cladding, and manufacturers and suppliers across the engineering sector.

SteelSure goes beyond standard cover

Steel construction and engineering businesses face exposures a generic trades policy doesn’t cover — from height and hot works to hazardous locations. SteelSure is built specifically for the sector, developed directly with A-rated insurers.

Common challenges our clients face

Height and hot works exposure

Structural and secondary steelwork installation frequently involves working at height and hot works — activities standard policies often exclude or restrict.

Hazardous and overseas locations

Steel erectors and fabricators often work across hazardous sites, both in the UK and internationally, requiring cover that travels with the work.

Cladding and secondary steelwork

Installation defects or errors in structural or secondary steelwork can lead to significant rectification and liability claims.

Operator and equipment error

Manufacturing and fabrication processes carry risk of operator error and equipment failure that generic cover doesn’t anticipate.
