Generali Global Corporate & Commercial (GC&C) has launched MetaRELP, a digital platform designed to support risk engineering training and improve loss prevention communication across complex industrial environments.
According to a company statement, the platform uses immersive and augmented reality technology to recreate industrial facilities and simulate potential loss scenarios, including fires, machinery failures, and flood protection gaps.
GC&C said one of the platform’s primary uses will be the training and development of risk engineers through interactive 3D walkthroughs of industrial sites featuring hazards, exposures, and controls. The tool is intended to help risk engineers better assess how different risks can contribute to loss potential and support discussions with clients, brokers, and underwriters.
The platform will also be used to improve client awareness of operational risks through augmented reality simulations that visualise how incidents can escalate within facilities.
“MetaRELP clearly reflects our ambition to modernise Risk Engineering & Loss Prevention,” Matthew Day, head of risk engineering and loss prevention at GC&C, said.
“As part of GC&C’s Next Level Plan 2025–27, we are investing in scalable digital solutions that support risk assessments and underwriting discussions across markets,” he added.
The training platform will be available to all GC&C risk engineers, while the augmented reality client functionality will initially be rolled out in Italy and Spain.
MetaRELP was developed in collaboration with Vection Technologies and supported by the Generali Innovation Fund. GC&C said the technology enables digital recreation of industrial sites and interactive simulation of loss scenarios for insurance applications.
