In the years in which I had purchased general and professional errors and omissions liability insurance through KHT Insurance, I received nothing less than 1st class service from their organization.

Insurance for Manufacturers
We place every line a manufacturer needs — property, equipment, business interruption, workers' comp and more — and we lead with the coverage that follows what you make: product liability, shopped across the carriers that understand your operation.
A full program, led by Product liability
Every coverage the plant requires — starting with the risk that follows the product.
KHT places the complete commercial program for manufacturers: commercial property, equipment breakdown, business interruption, commercial auto, workers' compensation, umbrella, and the business owner's policy that bundles the essentials. Whatever your operation carries, we can quote it and bring it under one roof — so your renewals and certificates stop being a scramble across separate companies.
But we lead with product liability, because for a manufacturer the exposure doesn't stop when the product leaves the dock — it follows the goods downstream.
Product & Completed-Operations Liability
The risk that keeps creating liability long after you ship: a defect that injures a customer or damages their property can produce a claim years after the unit left your floor.
It's also priced differently by what you make. A metal fabricator, a food producer, and an electronics assembler don't face the same claims — and the carriers who compete for each aren't the same.
That's what an independent broker is for: matching your process to the market that prices it best, instead of a one-size quote.
Product liability
Defense and damages when a product you made is alleged to have injured someone or damaged their property — even years after it shipped.
Property, equipment & breakdown
The building, the inventory, and the machinery you depend on — covered against damage and mechanical or electrical failure.
Business interruption
The income and continuing expenses covered when a covered loss forces the line to stop — so a shutdown doesn't become a closure.
If your business needs it, we likely write it.
Eighteen commercial lines across four areas — from the policies every business carries to specialty and surety coverage.
Operations we place
Built for the range of manufacturing.
What you make drives what you need, so we don't hand every manufacturer the same form. Tell us your process and we'll ask what that operation actually requires.
● Metal fabrication
● Food & beverage
● Plastics & injection molding
● Electronics & assembly
● Machine shops
● Furniture & millwork
● Chemical encodings
● Building products
● Contract manufacturers
Why place it through KHT
Specific things we do that most agencies don't.
Early renewal quotes
We quote your renewal well ahead of expiration — giving you time to review and compare, not a take-it-or-leave-it the day before.
Multiple carriers, lowest qualified quote
We shop across markets and recommend the best-fit, best-priced option.
Owners on your account
An established, owner-led team. When you call, you speak directly with the people responsible for protecting your business.
The renewal difference
Why timing is the A&E hot button.
Most design firms don't switch brokers because of a claim. They switch because their current broker put them in a corner — renewal terms the day before expiration, no time to shop. Here's how we run it instead.
At placement
We map the operation
We look at what you make, your process, your revenue, and your equipment — and place it with carriers that actually price your kind of manufacturing well.
Ahead of renewal
We quote early
Your renewal gets shopped well before expiration, so you're comparing real options rather than accepting a last-minute number.
As you grow
The program scales
New equipment, a new product line, a bigger footprint — we adjust coverage so it matches the operation as it actually is, not as it was last year.

common questions
The questions Manufacturers ask.
General liability covers third-party injury and property damage tied to your premises and operations. Product liability covers claims that your finished product caused harm after it left you. Manufacturers need both, and we'll make sure neither is left thin.
That's the point of product and completed-operations coverage — a claim can surface long after the unit shipped, and the right policy responds even when the loss shows up years downstream. We size the limits to your exposure.
Business interruption coverage replaces lost income and covers continuing expenses while you rebuild after a covered loss — so an event that stops production doesn't put you out of business. We'll set the limit against your real numbers.
Yes. Large buyers and retailers often require additional-insured status and specific limits in a supply agreement. Send us the requirements and we'll place coverage that meets them, then issue the certificate.
Yes — that's how we prefer to do it. One independent broker across the whole program means one renewal cycle, one point of contact, and no gaps falling between separately managed policies.
No. Many manufacturers come to us for product liability first, then consolidate the rest later. There's no requirement — product liability is where we lead.
