Questions from Newmill brands
Do you send samples?
Yes. Ask for a sample pack and we’ll send it to you in Newmill, so you can feel the materials and finishes before you order.
Which labelling rules apply to supplements sold from Newmill?
Newmill is in Scotland, so the Food Supplements (Scotland) Regulations 2003 apply, together with the general food information rules. Health claims have to come from the GB nutrition and health claims register.
Can you check a label that’s already printed?
We can still check them. If we find problems, we’ll tell you what must change now and what can wait for the next run.
Who enforces food labelling in the Scottish Borders?
Food labelling is enforced by the local council’s trading standards or environmental health team for the Scottish Borders, with national oversight from Food Standards Scotland. If you want assured advice, you can set up a Primary Authority partnership with a council.
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 the check covers for Newmill brands
Send your artwork or draft copy. We review it against the Food Supplements (Scotland) 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. It’s a practical review, not legal advice. If you need advice councils must respect, a Primary Authority partnership is the next step. We check labels designed and printed anywhere, not just our own.
