Questions from Glapthorn brands
Is your check the same as a Trading Standards check?
No. Trading Standards for Northamptonshire enforce the law; we give a practical second opinion before you print.
Who enforces food labelling in Northamptonshire?
Food labelling is enforced by the local council’s trading standards or environmental health team for Northamptonshire, overseen nationally by the Food Standards Agency. For advice councils must respect, consider a Primary Authority partnership with a council.
What do I get back?
A written report, with every point marked as fine, advised or must fix, plus suggested wording.
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 which are urgent and which can wait for your next print run.
What the check covers for Glapthorn 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. It’s a practical review, not legal advice. For assured advice, a Primary Authority partnership is the next step. The check covers any label, whoever designed or printed it, not just our own.
