Printers
Even in the era of digital content, there’s still a substantial business in the printed word, more than $90 billion a year in revenue among the more than 30,000 commercial printing businesses in the U.S. And whether it’s lithography, flexography, letterpress, thermography, laser printing, gravure, relief printing, screen printing or digital printing, the concerns are the same: keeping the presses running and keeping workers safe while they do so.At Hanover Risk Solutions, we have the information you need to do both, and we have alliances with partners who can also help you get your business up and running if a weather event threatens to close you down.

Electrical preventive maintenance for small businesses
The cost incurred keeping your electrical systems maintained is nothing compared to what happens when lack of maintenance causes a breakdown – and a host of problems: fire, damage to other systems, injury to workers and business interruption. But an effective preventive maintenance program can help prevent small problems from becoming big – and costly – ones. Hanover can help you create an EPM program suited to your business.
