Supplement label compliance check in Fence
Send us your label and we’ll tell you, in writing, what must change before it goes on sale from Fence.
What the check covers for Fence 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. This is a practical check rather than legal advice. If you need advice councils must respect, a Primary Authority partnership is the next step. The check covers any label, whoever designed or printed it, not just our own.
Fence is about 2 miles west of Nelson, in Lancashire. For Fence addresses, our courier normally delivers the next working day after dispatch. We print for companies in 395 towns and villages across Lancashire. Our customers stretch from Fence to Manchester (25 miles away), all on the same terms.

Rules in England
Supplement labelling rules for Fence
Products you sell from Fence must meet the Food Supplements (England) Regulations 2003, under the oversight of the Food Standards Agency. In Lancashire, food labelling is enforced by the local authority’s trading standards or environmental health officers.
One label works across England, Scotland and Wales, as Great Britain shares one set of supplement rules.
A good first step is our label requirements checklist, then review your health claims, %NRV figures and nutrient guides.

Fence questions
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 work for that market. Let us know where your products go and we’ll check the label for each market.
What if my labels are already printed?
We’ll still check them. If we find problems, we’ll tell you which are urgent and which can wait for your next print run.
Who enforces food labelling in Lancashire?
Food labelling is enforced by the local council’s trading standards or environmental health team for Lancashire, with national oversight from the Food Standards Agency. If you want assured advice, you can set up a Primary Authority partnership with a council.
Which labelling rules apply to supplements sold from Fence?
Fence is in England, so the Food Supplements (England) Regulations 2003 apply, alongside the general food information rules. Health claims have to come from the GB nutrition and health claims register.
How long does a check take?
We’ll tell you the turnaround when you send your artwork.
