Environmental Risks

Don’t let a pollution incident threaten your whole business

Environmental exposures have been amplified by a tougher legal environment throughout the EU which introduced new concepts such as damage to biodiversity and more stringent clean-up requirements. 

To meet the needs of our clients, EnviroPro has been developed. EnviroPro is a wide policy that fits in the changing laws and regulations. Besides that, its tailor-made for our clients. This means that even though businesses’ operations may not have changed, their potential environmental liabilities have increased.
