For over 125 years, Pennsylvania Lumbermens Mutual Insurance Company (PLM) has been here as your open market choice for your wood accounts. Think woodworkers of all size – from one-person shops to cabinet makers and all the way up to larger mills. We know you may not see this type of risk everyday, so consider also that half of what we write is in the building material world: not contractors but where they source their materials like suppliers, lumberyards, material dealers, hardware stores and small home centers. We are the admitted carrier for these businesses whenever you come across them.
While things have changed around the country, now more than ever, it is important that you trust your wood clients’ business to the carrier that understands them best. Clients like these:
- Lumberyards and small home centers
- Building materials and dealers
- Cabinet shops, sawmills and woodworkers of all sizes
- And more: TARGET MARKETS
And that’s why we want to make doing business as easy as possible with our submission process:
- Email standard ACORD apps to NewBiz@plmins.com
- Write any number of accounts with no minimum, no contracts, and no premium requirements
- Contact Customer Service: 800-752-1895

You’ll find attached a few documents to know more about the risks we write, rounding out accounts with our in-house WC placement and other info to look over.
We invite you to take a look at our Producer Kit that further describes the types of risks we write and the products and services we provide.
Thank you again for your time and interest in PLM. If we aren’t already doing business together, we hope to be in the near future. If you have any questions about submissions or becoming a PLM Producer, please contact us.
