FAQs for Appspond
How long does a check take?
We confirm the turnaround when you send your label.
Do you only work with Appspond businesses?
No. We work online and deliver across the UK, so it makes no difference where you’re based. Appspond orders go by tracked courier to AL2.
What does the report look like?
A written report, with each item marked fine, advised or must fix, with suggested wording where needed.
Who checks supplement labels in Hertfordshire?
Food labelling is enforced by the local council’s trading standards or environmental health team for Hertfordshire, 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 Hertfordshire enforce labelling law; we give an independent practical check before you print.
What the check covers for Appspond brands
Send your artwork or draft copy. We review it against the Food Supplements (England) Regulations 2003, the food information rules and the GB nutrition and health claims register, and send back a written report with every point marked as fine, advised or must fix. We check labels designed and printed anywhere, including ones from other printers. This is a practical check rather than legal advice. For assured advice, a Primary Authority partnership is the next step.
