What is Equipment Breakdown Insurance?
If your business relies on specialist machinery, you know how important that equipment is for your ability to operate and generate income. Unplanned machinery outages can cause:
- Interruption to workflows
- Damage to company reputation
- Safety concerns
- Lost profits
- Loss of stock
- Increased need for staff to compensate
Having an equipment breakdown policy tailored to your needs can save you from suffering the full impact of a breakdown.
You can receive compensation for stock spoilage, cover for a temporary replacement, loss of profits and repair or replacement of equipment.
What can be covered
- Equipment breakdown
- Loss of gross profit
- Temporary equipment hire
- Stock spoilage
- Boilers & pressure vessels
What may not be
- Accidental damage, fire & perils
- Any issues covered by manufacturer warranty
- General wear & tear
- Failure to maintain or service equipment

Equipment Breakdown claim example
John owns a popular cafe in a busy locale close to the city. During the night, a power surge caused the coffee machine and fridge to malfunction and stop working.
As a result his food and drink stock was spoiled, and the coffee machine unable to be used to make drinks. He discovered this early in the morning an hour before opening and made contact with his insurer straight away.
His equipment breakdown insurance covered the costs of arranging temporary hire of a coffee machine while it was repaired and the loss of his stock which he was able to replace and store in an alternative refrigerator.

Dealt with Consolidated Insurance Brokers to sort business insurance for my mobile food van - a custom-built refrigerated setup that's not the easiest thing to insure. Debbie worked through the details with me, got it … More placed with Vero, and came back with a competitive premium that covered everything I needed: public liability, the vehicle, stock and goods in transit. She was happy to revise the quote as my requirements changed and made sure the specifics of the vehicle were captured properly. Good, straightforward service and a fair price. Happy to recommend. -

After years of handling exhausting insurance administration on my own, I finally sought the assistance of an experienced insurance brokerage firm. Gina De Bonis of CIB was the perfect mix of expert professionalism and human … More warmth; being efficient, informative and a delight to deal with from the first phone call. I have a home and contents insurance policy and premium I am comfortable with knowing that there is an entire team at CIB who constantly review the insurance companies they work with. Gina has also been very quick to assist in any further questions I've had since purchasing a policy through CIB. It makes such a difference to be able to build a professional relationship with someone and contact them directly rather than ringing a generic number and speaking to a different consultant every time. I rarely provide public Google reviews but it is a pleasure to provide a 5 star review for Gina and CIB.
