Rules in Scotland
Labelling law for supplements from Ettrickbridge
Products you sell from Ettrickbridge must meet the Food Supplements (Scotland) Regulations 2003, under the oversight of Food Standards Scotland. At a local level, food labelling is enforced by the local authority’s trading standards or environmental health officers.
Scotland has its own food regulator, but the supplement labelling rules match England and Wales, so one label works across Great Britain.
Begin with our label requirements checklist, and then check your health claims, %NRV figures and nutrient guides.

What the check covers for Ettrickbridge brands
Send your artwork or draft copy. We review it against the Food Supplements (Scotland) 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, including ones from other printers. It’s a practical review, not legal advice. If you need advice councils must respect, a Primary Authority partnership is the next step.

Common questions in Ettrickbridge
Can you check a label that’s already printed?
We can still check them. If we find problems, we’ll tell you which are urgent and which can wait for your next print run.
How long does a check take?
We’ll tell you the turnaround when you send your artwork.
Do you send samples?
Yes, we can. Request a sample pack and we’ll send it to you in Ettrickbridge, so you can feel the materials and finishes.
Which labelling rules apply to supplements sold from Ettrickbridge?
Ettrickbridge is in Scotland, so the Food Supplements (Scotland) Regulations 2003 apply, alongside the general food information rules. Health claims must come from the GB nutrition and health claims register.
What if I sell in Northern Ireland too?
We check against both sets of rules. EU food law applies in Northern Ireland, so health claims must be on the EU register and the address must work for that market. Let us know where your products go and we’ll cover both.
