APRIL has been present in the decennial liability insurance market for more than 15 years, and is reaffirming its expertise in this market with the launch of its APRIL Construction brand, dedicated to all building professionals, from start-ups to experienced companies, for all types of activities. This announcement confirms APRIL’s ambitions in the property and casualty insurance sector, which currently accounts for 30% of the group’s turnover.
Regulatory changes, in particular under the Climate & Resilience Act, new consumer expectations regarding materials and energy performance levels, as well as digitalisation and the emergence of AI, are transforming the building industry. To keep pace with these changes, while continuing to ensure the safety of building sites and protect the business of building and civil engineering professionals, APRIL is strengthening its business dedicated to construction by creating the APRIL Construction brand.
The creation of APRIL Construction is the culmination of 15 years’ experience in this market, thanks to offers dedicated to building and civil engineering professionals that cover all their needs: finishing work, structural work and specific activities, particularly in connection with the energy transition.
‘Since the 2000s, the building and civil engineering market has undergone many changes and continues to reinvent itself: this creates new risks that we need to be able to support to enable craftsmen and building companies to innovate and develop while securing their activities. The creation of the APRIL Construction brand reflects our commitment to working alongside these professionals and the specialist brokers who work with them to secure their business and anticipate changes in their profession,’ explains Karim Taalbi, Managing Director of APRIL Partenaires, which handles construction insurance.
