The boiler insurance market is experiencing growth driven by an increasing number of explosions and related damages in industries. Boilers, crucial for industrial processes, pose risks of catastrophic explosions, leading to substantial financial losses for companies. Boiler insurance mitigates these risks, providing financial protection. In January 2022, ResilInc. reported a 129% increase in factory fire incidents in 2021, totaling 1,946 cases. Globally, over the past decade, 23,000 boiler accidents have been reported, with India alone contributing 34% to the fatalities. The surge in explosions and damages propels the boiler insurance market, offering companies a safety net against unforeseen financial repercussions.

The expansion of manufacturing industries is a key driver supporting the growth of the boiler insurance market. As manufacturing sectors grow, the demand for boilers rises, necessitating comprehensive insurance coverage to address potential damages and losses.

The escalating global energy demand acts as a catalyst for the growth of the boiler insurance market, aligning with industries' evolving risk landscapes.
