Check your supplement label: Lochawe brands
Send us your label and we’ll tell you, in writing, what must change before it goes on sale from Lochawe.
What the check covers for Lochawe brands
We read your label line by line: the supplement statements, the nutrient table and %NRV maths, ingredients and allergens, claims, text size and traceability. You get a written report you can act on or pass to your designer. It’s a practical review, not legal advice. For assured advice, a Primary Authority partnership is the next step. The check covers any label, whoever designed or printed it, including ones from other printers.
Lochawe is about 30 miles north-west of Helensburgh, in Argyll and Bute. Lochawe businesses send us their artwork online, and labels go out by tracked courier to PA33 and the surrounding area. We cover 106 towns and villages across Argyll and Bute, from the larger towns to small villages. We print for brands right across the region, from Lochawe to Glasgow (about 48 miles away).

Lochawe questions
How quickly do you review a label?
We’ll tell you the turnaround when you send your artwork, and urgent checks can often be done quickly.
What do I get back?
A written report, with every point marked fine, advised or must fix, plus suggested wording.
Which labelling rules apply to supplements sold from Lochawe?
Lochawe is in Scotland, so the Food Supplements (Scotland) Regulations 2003 cover your label, together with the general food information rules. Health claims must come from the GB nutrition and health claims register.
Is your check the same as a Trading Standards check?
No. Trading Standards for Argyll and Bute enforce the law; we give an independent practical check 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.
Rules in Scotland
Labelling law for supplements from Lochawe
Any food supplement sold from Lochawe must meet the Food Supplements (Scotland) Regulations 2003, regulated nationally by Food Standards Scotland. In Argyll and Bute, 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.
