Questions from Abridge brands
Who enforces food labelling in Essex?
Supplement labelling is enforced by the local council’s trading standards or environmental health team for Essex, with national oversight from the Food Standards Agency. For advice councils must respect, you can set up a Primary Authority partnership with a council.
Is your check the same as a Trading Standards check?
No. Trading Standards for Essex enforce the law; we give an independent practical check before you print.
Which labelling rules apply to supplements sold from Abridge?
Abridge is in England, so the Food Supplements (England) Regulations 2003 apply, alongside the general food information rules. Health claims have to come from the GB nutrition and health claims register.
Do you send samples?
Yes. Request a sample pack and we’ll post it to your Abridge address, so you can feel the materials and finishes.
Can you check a label that’s already printed?
We can still check them. If we find problems, we’ll tell you which are urgent and which can wait for your next print run.
