Plantation Insurance
Our short-term insurance brokers are fully accredited to provide clients with plantation insurance solutions. This cover mitigates risks associated with fires and allied perils on the plantation industry, including harvesting costs, debris removal and aerial water-bombing costs.
TWK is one of the more significant plantation owners and growers in South Africa and its neighbouring country, Eswatini. We have recently created our first party cell for TWK’s plantations through Yard Insurance. Our in-house brokers administrate this independently owned cell. However, TWK wishes to extend this offering with a Third Party Cell soon to create a unique Plantation offering for our clients in this space.
Forestry insurance is where it all began back in 1987, and we have understandably established a reputation as experts in this field. Our Plantation programme offers one of the highest levels of cover for damage caused by fire, lightning and explosion to standing timber plantations and/or harvested plantations while in-field or at a depot on the insured’s property.
We also offer cover for harvesting costs incurred for timber damaged whilst in-field or at a depot, i.e. cover for harvested wood over and above the nett standing value whilst in-field or at a depot.
Other extensions include aerial bombing cover and debris removal cover for non-salvageable timber that must be cleared before replanting.
Our Plantation policy also offers clients comprehensive public liability cover, including the spread of fire, products, pollution, and employer’s liability. Cover can also be extended for landowners with contractors operating on their property.
