Supplement label compliance check in Cwm
Send us your label and we’ll tell you, in writing, what must change before it goes on sale from Cwm.
Questions from Cwm brands
What does the report look like?
A written, point-by-point report, with every point marked fine, advised or must fix, plus suggested wording.
Which labelling rules apply to supplements sold from Cwm?
Cwm is in Wales, so the Food Supplements (Wales) Regulations 2003 apply, alongside the general food information rules. Health claims have to come from the GB nutrition and health claims register.
What if I sell in Northern Ireland too?
We can check for both. EU food law applies in Northern Ireland, so health claims must be on 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.
Is this the same as Trading Standards advice?
No. Trading Standards for Blaenau Gwent enforce labelling law; we give a practical second opinion before you print.
How long does a check take?
We confirm the turnaround when you send your label, and urgent checks can often be done quickly.
What the check covers for Cwm brands
Send your artwork or draft copy. We review it against the Food Supplements (Wales) 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, including ones from other printers. It’s a practical review, not legal advice. For assured advice, a Primary Authority partnership is the next step.
