CECR insurance is of the type of insurance with the named or specified risks and covers damages caused by floods, water floods, hurricanes, earthquakes, fires and explosions, cold, avalanches, freezing, sabotage, collisions of land, sea or air vehicles, volcanoes, underwater earthquake, subsidence, ground movement, lightning and wave collisions.

2. Non-profit insurance due to delays in project operation

The above-said insurance policy covers losses resulting from delays in the operation of the project.
If a sudden and unforeseen accident occurs during the construction work and the insured project is damaged in such a way that the execution period of the work is extended and its operation time is delayed, the insurer will compensate for the damages incurred upon the employer due to the delay in the operation of the project, within the terms of the insurance policy.
This insurance policy also predicts the time franchise with regard to the nature of the risk.

3. Stability and construction quality insurance

"Insurance of basic and hidden defects of the building"

This insurance policy insures damages caused by incorrect design, use of substandard materials or poor-quality materials, improper execution of work, to residential and office buildings during operation that result from the main structures of the building for ten years.

Coverage of this insurance begins after the certificate of construction completion and at the delivery time of residential and office units for their use as follows.

1. Building structures including: foundation, skeleton, roof and concrete works for ten years.
2. Facade of the building for 5 years.
3. Mechanical and electrical equipment and facilities for three years.

Mass builders of housing and construction can also make good use of this insurance coverage in order to raise construction standards, as well as to provide more peace of mind for the people and to preserve national assets.

4. Contractor’s Plant & Machinery Insurance (C.P.M)

This insurance policy covers physical damage caused by external hazards to contracting and agricultural machinery and equipment such as: loaders, bulldozers, graders, sidebars, forklifts, combine harvesters, tractors, cranes, drilling rigs, welding machines, pumps, compressors, generators and the like, which are the tools of contractors.

5. Machinery Breakdown insurance (MB)

This insurance covers machinery and facilities that are installed and in operation. Workshops and factories in operation are among the items covered by machinery breakdown insurance. Machinery breakdown insurance insures unforeseen and sudden physical damages to all types of machines due to incorrect design, manufacturing defects, improper workmanship, lack of skill, carelessness, power fluctuations, physical explosion and centrifugal force.
Risks such as hurricanes, floods, earthquakes, and landslides can also be insured by paying an additional premium in this insurance.

6. Machinery Loss of Profit Insurance (MLOP)

This insurance complements the machinery breakdown insurance and if there are delays in the production of the factory due to sudden risks and damage to the machines, and will insure the loss due to the cessation of production, which includes current costs and employees' salaries which will be lost during the cessation period.
