Supplement label checks for Balado, Perth and Kinross
Send us your label and we’ll tell you, in writing, what must change before it goes on sale from Balado.
What the check covers for Balado 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. The check covers any label, whoever designed or printed it, 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.
