Pollution

Term · Insurance and risk management · MLC-T-INS-002603

The presence or introduction of contaminants into the environment, as specifically defined within an insurance policy. The definition typically includes solid, liquid, gaseous, or thermal irritants or contaminants, including smoke, vapor, soot, fumes, acids, alkalis, chemicals, and waste. Most standard property and liability policies contain a pollution exclusion, which removes coverage for losses arising from pollution events, necessitating separate environmental insurance.
