Label rules that apply in Hixon
Any food supplement sold from Hixon must meet the Food Supplements (England) Regulations 2003, overseen by the Food Standards Agency. At a local level, food labelling is enforced by council trading standards or environmental health staff.
You can sell the same label in Scotland and Wales, as Great Britain shares one set of supplement rules.
Start with our label requirements checklist, and then check your health claims, %NRV figures and nutrient guides.

What the check covers for Hixon 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. 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.

Hixon questions
Is your check the same as a Trading Standards check?
No. Trading Standards for Staffordshire enforce the law; we give an independent practical check before you print.
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.
Do you send samples?
Yes. Ask for a sample pack and we’ll post it to your Hixon address, so you can feel the materials and finishes.
Which labelling rules apply to supplements sold from Hixon?
Hixon is in England, so the Food Supplements (England) Regulations 2003 cover your label, together with the general food information rules. Health claims must come from the GB nutrition and health claims register.
Do I need to be based in Hixon to order?
No. We work online and deliver across the UK, so it makes no difference where you’re based. Hixon orders go by tracked courier to ST18.
