What the check covers for Balmore brands

Send your artwork or draft copy. We review it against the Food Supplements (Scotland) 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. It’s a practical review, not legal advice. If you need advice councils must respect, a Primary Authority partnership is the next step.

Rules in Scotland

Supplement labelling rules for Balmore

Products you sell from Balmore must meet the Food Supplements (Scotland) Regulations 2003, overseen by Food Standards Scotland. Locally, food labelling is enforced by the local authority’s trading standards or environmental health officers for East Dunbartonshire.

Scotland has its own food regulator, but the supplement labelling rules match England and Wales, so one label works across Great Britain.

A good first step is our label requirements checklist, then check your health claims, %NRV figures and nutrient guides.

FAQs for Balmore

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

We check against both sets of rules. EU food law applies in Northern Ireland, so claims must come from 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.

Is your check the same as a Trading Standards check?

No. Trading Standards for East Dunbartonshire enforce labelling law; we give a practical second opinion 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 which are urgent and which can wait for your next print run.

Which labelling rules apply to supplements sold from Balmore?

Balmore is in Scotland, so the Food Supplements (Scotland) Regulations 2003 cover your label, together with the general food information rules. Health claims must come from the GB nutrition and health claims register.

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.
