Business insurance

Insurance for Paint Suppliers

A paint store carries some particular risks alongside the usual retail ones. Stock and contents cover is important given the value of paint, tinting machines and sundries you hold, and because paint and solvents are flammable, fire risk and proper storage matter to your insurer. Public liability protects against customer injury in-store, and product liability covers issues arising from products you supply.

Add business interruption and, if you employ staff, workers' compensation. Premiums for a paint supplier often sit around the ~$900 mark, and with many policies renewing around 30 June, it is worth reviewing stock and liability limits before the new financial year, given the flammable inventory and the value of your tinting equipment.

Common questions

Paint Suppliers — insurance questions

What insurance does a paint supplier need?

Stock and contents cover protects your paint, tinting machines and sundries, while public liability covers customer injury and product liability covers issues with goods you supply. Because paint and solvents are flammable, fire cover and proper storage are important, and workers' compensation applies if you employ staff.

Does storing paint and solvents affect my insurance?

Yes — flammable stock raises fire risk, so insurers expect appropriate storage and may factor it into your cover and premium. Reviewing this before your 30 June renewal helps ensure your stock and premises are properly protected.
