What the check covers for Blackthorn 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. We check labels designed and printed anywhere, not just our own. It’s a practical review, not legal advice. If you need advice councils must respect, a Primary Authority partnership is the next step.

FAQs for Blackthorn
Do you only work with Blackthorn businesses?
No. We work online and deliver across the UK, so your location doesn’t matter. Blackthorn deliveries go by tracked courier to OX25.
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.
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 Blackthorn?
Blackthorn is in England, so the Food Supplements (England) Regulations 2003 apply, as well as the general food information rules. Health claims have to come from the GB nutrition and health claims register.
Is this the same as Trading Standards advice?
No. Trading Standards for Oxfordshire enforce labelling law; we give an independent practical check before you print.
