Liberty International Underwriters Launches New Product Recall Policy for Packagers and Co-Packers

Posted on by

BOSTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--

Liberty International Underwriters (LIU), part of Liberty Mutual Insurance, has launched LIU Packagers Protection, a new LIU Product Recall policy for packagers and co-packers.

Designed specifically for packagers and co-packers of topical and ingestible products, the unique LIU Packagers Protection policy provides a broad trigger in the market for this type of cover offering a form with Product Recall, Product Contamination or Manufacturing Errors & Omissions as the potential trigger. It is custom tailored for a broad range of the packaging industry, including manufacturers of packaging for food, beverage, pharmaceuticals and personal care (topical and ingestible products) as well as co-packers, fillers and mixed operations that may include both packaging and processing.

Packagers and co-packers have significant exposure from third-party financial loss due to the nature of their business, said Louis Lubrano, senior vice president of LIU Global Crisis Management. The combination of broad triggers and cover for third-party loss of earnings lets us respond to this exposure in a way that is not currently offered anywhere else in the market.

red24, the crisis management firm that provides LIU policyholders with specialized loss control engineering and loss mitigation services, is also an integral part of this new policy. With red24, LIU helps brokers secure the coverage that can protect their clients employees, operations, and reputation before, during and after a crisis.

Brokers and agents can contact Mr. Lubrano directly at 212-208-9543 or louis.lubrano@libertyiu.com.

Sports are outlet for Liberty's Gibson

Running back has passion for football

LIBERTY As a young boy, Shakree Gibson was painfully shy, keeping to himself in what his foster mom, Brenda Miller, called his own little world.

Truth be told, young Shakree was more than shy. He was scared and insecure.

However, for Gibson, confidence would partially come in the form of sports. His therapy was provided on soccer fields, baseball diamonds, basketball fields and, most of all, on the football field.

This is why Gibson plays running back. He starts for Liberty, by way of Fallsburg, where he played the last three seasons. Gibson transferred to Liberty in June after completing his junior year at Fallsburg, which folded its football team after last season.

"When Fallsburg lost football, in my head, I was going crazy," Gibson said. "Football was the only way I could get everything out of my head. All the pain, the misery, the depression was stuck in my head. Football is the only way I could get it out of my head."

Gibson could end up being a 1,000-yard rusher for Liberty, a perennial Class C playoff contender, this fall. He put up 1,039 yards and seven touchdowns for Fallsburg last season. Gibson has 281 yards in three games this year.
