What the check covers for Astwood 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. The check covers any label, whoever designed or printed it, including ones from other printers. This is a practical check rather than legal advice. If you need advice councils must respect, a Primary Authority partnership is the next step.

Astwood questions
Do you check labels for Northern Ireland as well as Great Britain?
We check against both sets of rules. Northern Ireland follows EU food law, 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.
Who enforces food labelling in Milton Keynes?
Supplement labelling is enforced by the local council’s trading standards or environmental health team for Milton Keynes, overseen nationally by the Food Standards Agency. If you want assured advice, 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 Milton Keynes enforce the law; we give an independent practical check before you print.
Can you check a label that’s already printed?
We’ll still check them. If we find problems, we’ll tell you what must change now and what can wait for the next run.
Do you send samples?
Yes, we can. Request a sample pack and we’ll send it to you in Astwood, showing our materials and finishes before you order.
