Questions from Newstead brands
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.
How quickly do you review a label?
We’ll tell you the turnaround when you send your artwork.
Who checks supplement labels in the Scottish Borders?
Food labelling is enforced by the local council’s trading standards or environmental health team for the Scottish Borders, overseen nationally by Food Standards Scotland. For advice councils must respect, you can set up a Primary Authority partnership with a council.
Do you only work with Newstead businesses?
No. We work online and deliver across the UK, so it makes no difference where you’re based. Newstead orders go by tracked delivery to TD6.
Is your check the same as a Trading Standards check?
No. Trading Standards for the Scottish Borders enforce labelling law; we give a practical second opinion before you print.
What the check covers for Newstead 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. We check labels designed and printed anywhere, not just our own. This is a practical check rather than legal advice. If you need advice councils must respect, a Primary Authority partnership is the next step.
