To mark this special milestone, PLM is also introducing a new streamlined website (still available at www.plmins.com) with a focus on its rich history and unique culture. The revamped website will offer convenient access to the resources policyholders and producers need to succeed, including a dedicated loss control center providing support and safety information for wood-related businesses. Further, insureds, producers and partners of PLM can visit the website’s anniversary page to learn more and get involved in the anniversary celebrations and upcoming charitable events.

Today, PLM will be kicking off its year of giving by providing employees with $125 each to donate to the charity of their choosing. More details on this and other charitable initiatives will be made available throughout the year.

“We are grateful to be a part of the rich history of the wood industry serving our customers, producers, and industry partners continuously for 125 years,” said PLM President John Smith. “As a mutual insurance company, we wake up every day with only one objective, and that is to serve our policyholders. On behalf of those who came before us, our employees, and myself, we thank our customers and producers for placing their trust in us. This year, we are marking this special anniversary with a year of service and volunteering and we encourage our fellow industry members to celebrate with us.”
