Supplement label compliance check in Ardfern

Send us your label and we’ll tell you, in writing, what must change before it goes on sale from Ardfern.

FAQs for Ardfern

Do you check labels for Northern Ireland as well as Great Britain?

We can check for both. EU food law applies in Northern Ireland, so health claims must be on the EU register and the address must be in NI or the EU. Tell us where you sell and we’ll check the label for each market.

Which labelling rules apply to supplements sold from Ardfern?

Ardfern is in Scotland, so the Food Supplements (Scotland) Regulations 2003 apply, as well as the general food information rules. Health claims must come from the GB nutrition and health claims register.

Can you check a label that’s already printed?

We’ll still check them. If we find problems, we’ll tell you which are urgent and which can wait for your next print run.

Do you only work with Ardfern businesses?

No. We work online and deliver across the UK, so your location doesn’t matter. Ardfern orders go by tracked delivery to PA31.

What do I get back?

A written, point-by-point report, with each item marked as fine, advised or must fix, with suggested wording where needed.

What the check covers for Ardfern brands

We read your label line by line: the supplement statements, the nutrient table and %NRV maths, ingredients and allergens, claims, text size and traceability. You get a written report you can act on or pass to your designer. We check labels designed and printed anywhere, not just our own. This is a practical check rather than legal advice. If you need advice councils must respect, a Primary Authority partnership is the next step.
