Questions from Carstairs brands
How long does a check take?
We confirm the turnaround when you send your label, and urgent checks can often be done quickly.
Can you check a label that’s already printed?
We’ll still check them. If we find problems, we’ll tell you what must change now and what can wait for the next run.
What if I sell in Northern Ireland too?
We check against both sets of rules. Northern Ireland follows EU food law, 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 cover both.

Supplement labelling is enforced by the local council’s trading standards or environmental health team for South Lanarkshire, overseen nationally by Food Standards Scotland. For advice councils must respect, consider a Primary Authority partnership with a council.

You get a written report you can act on or pass to your designer. This is a practical check rather than legal advice.
