Engineering Risks
This insurance focuses on the operation, assembly and potential breakdown of specialized mechanical equipment.
What is it?
It covers risks such as machinery breakdown, boiler or pressure vessel explosion, and loss of profits that may arise from such incidents. It concerns both the installation phase and the operational period of the machinery.
Who is it for?
It is relevant to industrial plants, hotel businesses, hospitals and any business relying on critical mechanical equipment for its operation.
Legal position
Is it compulsory in Cyprus?

General information only. Requirements can change and depend on your activity — Vesta can help clarify what applies to your circumstances.
When might you need it?
You are installing a new production line or specialized machinery in a plant.
You operate boilers or pressure systems that require specific risk management.
Your business is highly exposed in case of a sudden machinery breakdown.
These are illustrative circumstances, not a description of policy terms, conditions or exclusions.
Why review this cover?
Engineering risks are often underestimated until a business interruption occurs. A regular assessment helps identify critical points in the production process and ensure that the financial consequences of a breakdown are properly accounted for.
The Vesta approach
Understand first, then solutions.
We approach engineering risks through an understanding of your production process. We look not just at the equipment, but at your business's chain of dependence on it, so we can propose a protection framework aligned with your operational priorities.
