What the check covers for Houghall 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. This is a practical check rather than legal advice. For assured advice, a Primary Authority partnership is the next step. We check labels designed and printed anywhere, including ones from other printers.

Questions from Houghall brands
Can I see a sample before ordering?
Yes, we can. Ask for a sample pack and we’ll send it to you in Houghall, so you can feel the materials and finishes before you order.
Which labelling rules apply to supplements sold from Houghall?
Houghall is in England, so the Food Supplements (England) Regulations 2003 apply, alongside the general food information rules. Health claims have to come from the GB nutrition and health claims register.
Is this the same as Trading Standards advice?
No. Trading Standards for County Durham enforce the law; we give a practical second opinion before you print.
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 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 check the label for each market.
How quickly do you review a label?
We confirm the turnaround when you send your label, and urgent checks can often be done quickly.
