Supplement label compliance check in Monreith
A written review of your supplement label against the rules that apply in Scotland, for companies in Monreith and across Dumfries and Galloway.
What the check covers for Monreith 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. The check covers any label, whoever designed or printed it, including ones from other printers. This is a practical check rather than legal advice. If you need advice councils must respect, a Primary Authority partnership is the next step.

Rules in Scotland
Label rules that apply in Monreith
Any food supplement sold from Monreith must meet the Food Supplements (Scotland) Regulations 2003, overseen by Food Standards Scotland. At a local level, food labelling is enforced by council trading standards or environmental health staff.
Scotland has its own food regulator, but the supplement labelling rules match England and Wales, so one label works across Great Britain.
A good first step is our label requirements checklist, then check your health claims, %NRV figures and nutrient guides.

Common questions in Monreith
Which labelling rules apply to supplements sold from Monreith?
Monreith is in Scotland, so the Food Supplements (Scotland) Regulations 2003 apply, as well as the general food information rules. Health claims have to come from the GB nutrition and health claims register.
Is your check the same as a Trading Standards check?
No. Trading Standards for Dumfries and Galloway enforce labelling law; we give an independent practical check before you print.
Do you send samples?
Yes, we can. Ask for a sample pack and we’ll send it to you in Monreith, showing our materials and finishes.
Do you check labels for Northern Ireland as well as Great Britain?
We can check for both. Northern Ireland follows EU food law, so claims must come from 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.
Do you only work with Monreith businesses?
No. We work online and deliver across the UK, so it makes no difference where you’re based. Monreith orders go out by tracked courier to DG8.
