FMG’s Material Damage policy covers your commercial property, including buildings, contents, stock, portable plant and equipment, growing structures and growing plants.

This policy covers the cost of replacing key equipment, stock, contents, and buildings that are essential to your operations. It also provides cover for the cost of temporary removal, loan equipment and accommodation to help you manage the wait time between the repair or replacement of items.

Material Damage cover also extends to portable plant and equipment, such as tools of the trade, portable electronic equipment like cameras and cellphones, and other items which are typically stored off your business premises. This includes tools you keep in vehicles.

Any additional buildings, machinery or plant you buy or build, as well as any alterations to existing assets, during your period of insurance are also automatically covered for up to 30 days, as long as you notify FMG of those additions within that time period and pay any additional premium if required.
