Supplement label compliance check in Bowston
Send us your label and we’ll tell you, in writing, what must change before it goes on sale from Bowston.
What the check covers for Bowston 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. The check covers any label, whoever designed or printed it, not just our own. This is a practical check rather than legal advice. If you need advice councils must respect, a Primary Authority partnership is the next step.

A written, point-by-point report, with every point marked as fine, advised or must fix, plus suggested wording.
