Marine cargo clause limiting liability on a claim to payments for reconditioning of the cargo, the cost of new labels and re-labelling.
***
This clause protects the insurer in case where the material inside is intact but the external wrappers or labels are defaced, damaged or stained. In such cases, insurer’s liability is restricted to the cost of replacement of the labels or wrappers and reconditioning the goods but a total loss cannot be claimed by the assured. This clause is more relevant when the assured is a manufacturer himself and in case of loss of or damage to labels on his manufactured items, can re-label them.
