What the check covers for Bowhill 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, not just our own. It’s a practical review, not legal advice. For assured advice, a Primary Authority partnership is the next step.

Common questions in Bowhill
Who checks supplement labels in Fife?
Supplement labelling is enforced by the local council’s trading standards or environmental health team for Fife, overseen nationally by Food Standards Scotland. For advice councils must respect, consider a Primary Authority partnership with a council.
Do you send samples?
Yes, we can. Ask for a sample pack and we’ll post it to your Bowhill address, showing our materials and finishes.
How long does a check take?
We’ll tell you the turnaround when you send your artwork.
What if I sell in Northern Ireland too?
We can check for both. Northern Ireland follows EU food law, so health claims must be on the EU register and the address must work for that market. Tell us where you sell and we’ll cover both.
Is your check the same as a Trading Standards check?
No. Trading Standards for Fife enforce the law; we give a practical second opinion before you print.
