  • £1 million cover for public and products liability (with an option to increase to £2 million, £5 million or £10 million)

  • Worldwide liability cover for temporary work abroad for up to 14 days (excluding the USA and Canada)

Running a photocopying shop comes with risks like injury claims from customers tripping over trailing wires or financial loss from accidentally destroying important documents you are duplicating. Our photocopying insurance provides affordable protection against public liability, professional indemnity and other claims to give you complete peace of mind.

Why Photocopying Businesses Need Insurance:

As a photocopying service, you handle sensitive and valuable original paperwork for clients daily. Despite taking precautions, mistakes can happen, like copying inaccurate versions of files or even destroying precious documents put through your machines in error.

Without insurance, a single incident like this could put your entire business at risk if faced with a substantial negligence claim.

Additionally, with customers frequently visiting your premises, you also run the risk of minor accidents leading to injury lawsuits if adequate public liability cover isn’t in place.

  • Enlarging or reducing documents to fit specific requirements.
  • Collating and stapling multiple copies in order, duplex printing (double-sided) and sorting finished sets.

FAQs

Photocopying Insurance FAQs

Photocopying shops handle valuable original documents daily, so mistakes like putting inaccurate files on record or even destroying precious paperwork can easily happen. Without adequate insurance, just one incident like this could lead to substantial compensation demands from financially impacted customers. Insurance covers resulting payouts and legal expenses.

Examples of photocopying financial losses we cover include:

  • Putting an outdated document version on file for a business client who bases important plans on this leads to financial losses. Our professional indemnity covers the compensation.
  • Destroying the only copy of a manuscript for a book deal. The author’s lost profits and rewritten book costs would be covered under our policy.

We cover liability risks from:

  • Photocopying and printing services
  • Document duplication and scanning
  • Large-scale reprographics work
  • Printing photos, presentations, manuals and more

Essentially, we cover most claims stemming from mistakes in standard photocopying processes.

Yes – our insurance can cover any temporary staff, self-employed contractors or freelancers conducting photocopying work under your business identity.
