Common questions in Ashdon
Is this the same as Trading Standards advice?
No. Trading Standards for Essex enforce labelling law; we give a practical second opinion before you print.
Do you check labels for Northern Ireland as well as Great Britain?
We can check for both. Northern Ireland follows EU food law, so claims must come from the EU register and the address must be in NI or the EU. Let us know where your products go and we’ll check the label for each market.
What do I get back?
A written report, with each item marked as fine, advised or must fix, plus suggested wording.
How quickly do you review a label?
We’ll tell you the turnaround when you send your artwork, and urgent checks can often be done quickly.
Which labelling rules apply to supplements sold from Ashdon?
Ashdon is in England, so the Food Supplements (England) Regulations 2003 apply, alongside the general food information rules. Health claims must come from the GB nutrition and health claims register.
