Supplement label compliance check in Melplash
A written review of your supplement label against UK labelling rules that apply in England, for brands in Melplash and across Dorset.
What the check covers for Melplash 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. It’s a practical review, not legal advice. For assured advice, a Primary Authority partnership is the next step.

Melplash questions
Who checks supplement labels in Dorset?
Food labelling is enforced by the local council’s trading standards or environmental health team for Dorset, overseen nationally by the Food Standards Agency. If you want assured advice, you can set up a Primary Authority partnership with a council.
What do I get back?
A written report, with each item marked fine, advised or must fix, with suggested wording where needed.
Can I see a sample before ordering?
Yes. Request a sample pack and we’ll send it to you in Melplash, showing our materials and finishes before you order.
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.
Is your check the same as a Trading Standards check?
No. Trading Standards for Dorset enforce labelling law; we give an independent practical check before you print.
