Launched on Monday, the scheme is said to ensure that BPIF members can receive "print specific policies, a dedicated customer service team and rewards on their investment whilst maintaining competitive rates".
BPIF chief executive Michael Johnson said: "As part of our commitment to provide members’ with a premier insurance package we are proud to have launched a service that is specific to the printing industry and exclusive to the BPIF."
The BPIF has had an existing insurance contact for a number of years before R K Harrison offered an alternative and got the go-ahead.
The insurance broker already runs a scheme called Print Protect, which provides tailored insurance services to a range of businesses in the print industry.
R K Harrison product development manager Charles Thomas said: “We already insure about 10% of the print industry, and we have now changed the BPIF offering to include multi-product and multi-distribution services through brokers and straight to end users.”
The new service is exclusive to BPIF members and offers a range of insurance and risk management products and services.
