Supplement label checks for Bimbister, Orkney Islands
Check your supplement label before Trading Standards, a retailer or Amazon does. Reviews for Bimbister brands, done online.
What the check covers for Bimbister 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.

Questions from Bimbister brands
Is your check the same as a Trading Standards check?
No. Trading Standards for the Orkney Islands enforce labelling law; we give an independent practical check before you print.
What if my labels are 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 Bimbister?
Bimbister is in Scotland, so the Food Supplements (Scotland) Regulations 2003 apply, alongside the general food information rules. Health claims have to come from the GB nutrition and health claims register.
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 work for that market. Let us know where your products go and we’ll check the label for each market.
What do I get back?
A written, point-by-point report, with every point marked fine, advised or must fix, plus suggested wording.

Label rules that apply in Bimbister
Any food supplement sold from Bimbister must meet the Food Supplements (Scotland) Regulations 2003, regulated nationally by Food Standards Scotland. At a local level, food labelling is enforced by council trading standards or environmental health staff for the Orkney Islands.
Scotland has its own food regulator, but the supplement labelling rules match England and Wales, so one label works across Great Britain.
