What the check covers for Hardgate 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. This is a practical check rather than legal advice. For assured advice, a Primary Authority partnership is the next step.

Rules in Scotland
Labelling law for supplements from Hardgate
Supplements sold from Hardgate must meet the Food Supplements (Scotland) Regulations 2003, overseen by Food Standards Scotland. In Dumfries and Galloway, food labelling is enforced by the council’s trading standards or environmental health team.
Scotland has its own food regulator, but the supplement labelling rules match England and Wales, so one label works across Great Britain.

Hardgate questions
Do I need to be based in Hardgate to order?
No. We take orders online from anywhere in the UK, so your location doesn’t matter. Hardgate orders go out by tracked courier to DG7.
What if my labels are already printed?
We’ll still check them. If we find problems, we’ll tell you what must change now and what can wait for the next run.
What do I get back?
A written, point-by-point 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 be in NI or the EU. Tell us where you sell and we’ll cover both.
Is your check the same as a Trading Standards check?
No. Trading Standards for Dumfries and Galloway enforce labelling law; we give a practical second opinion before you print.
