Installation Floater for Industrial Coatings Contractors
Major industrial coatings projects often involve significant material pre-positioning — large quantities of industrial coating systems staged at remote project sites weeks before application. An installation floater protects these materials until they are applied and accepted.

What it covers
- Industrial coating materials staged at remote project sites
- Coating materials in transit to major project locations
- Work in progress — installed coatings before project owner acceptance
- Abrasive media and surface preparation materials staged at projects
- Damage from theft, vandalism, fire, and weather at remote sites
Who it's for
- Bridge painting contractors with materials staged at remote project sites
- Industrial facility coatings contractors with major material pre-orders
- Any coatings contractor where staged material value at a project site is significant before application
Why CCA
- Per-project or annual reporting forms — matches how major coatings contractors buy materials
- Coverage follows materials from manufacturing delivery through application and acceptance
- High per-location limits for major projects with significant staged material value
- Fast coverage confirmation to satisfy project owner requirements before material delivery
Common questions about installation floater
No. GL covers third-party claims, not your own property. Coating materials staged at a project site are your property until applied and accepted — an installation floater covers those materials.
This depends on the quantity and value of materials you pre-position. For a major bridge project with several hundred thousand dollars in coating system materials staged weeks in advance, limits of $250K to $500K or higher may be appropriate.
