What the check covers for Gorstage 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. 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.

Questions from Gorstage brands
Can I see a sample before ordering?
Yes, we can. Ask for a sample pack and we’ll post it to your Gorstage address, so you can feel the materials and finishes.
What does the report look like?
A written report, with every point marked fine, advised or must fix, plus suggested wording.
What if I sell in Northern Ireland too?
We can check for both. Northern Ireland follows EU food law, so claims must come from 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.
Is your check the same as a Trading Standards check?
No. Trading Standards for Cheshire West and Chester enforce labelling law; we give a practical second opinion before you print.
What if my labels are 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.
