ACE Adds Chemical Withdrawal Expense Endorsement to Ace PaC Form
ACE USA, the U.S-.based retail operations of the ACE Group, has expanded coverage for buyers of its combined general liability and pollution policy form—ACE PaC—designed for mid-sized clients in the chemical industry with pollution exposures. The ACE chemical product withdrawal expense coverage endorsement offers insurance coverage for those extra costs incurred to replace, repair or repurchase a product that must be withdrawn as a result of unintentional failures or errors that affect purity, safety or effectiveness, from many causes including tampering and sabotage.

- Products pollution on an occurrence basis
