Questions from Haster brands
Who checks supplement labels in Highland?
Supplement labelling is enforced by the local council’s trading standards or environmental health team for Highland, with national oversight from Food Standards Scotland. For advice councils must respect, consider a Primary Authority partnership with a council.
Do you send samples?
Yes. Request a sample pack and we’ll post it to your Haster address, showing our materials and finishes before you order.
What does the report look like?
A written report, with every point marked fine, advised or must fix, plus suggested wording.
Which labelling rules apply to supplements sold from Haster?
Haster is in Scotland, so the Food Supplements (Scotland) Regulations 2003 cover your label, alongside the general food information rules. Health claims have to come from the GB nutrition and health claims register.
Do you check labels for Northern Ireland as well as Great Britain?
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 be in NI or the EU. Let us know where your products go and we’ll check the label for each market.
What the check covers for Haster 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. The check covers any label, whoever designed or printed it, not just our own. This is a practical check rather than legal advice. If you need advice councils must respect, a Primary Authority partnership is the next step.
