Supplement label marked up with compliance fixes for a Newtownards brand

What the check covers for Newtownards brands

Send your artwork or draft copy. We review it against the Food Supplements (Northern Ireland) Regulations 2003, the food information rules and the EU nutrition and health claims register, and send back a written report with every point marked as fine, advised or must fix. This is a practical check rather than 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.

FAQs for Newtownards

Can I see a sample before ordering?

Yes. Ask for a sample pack and we’ll post it to your Newtownards address, showing our materials and finishes.

How long does a check take?

We confirm the turnaround when you send your label, and urgent checks can often be done quickly.

Is your check the same as a Trading Standards check?

No. Trading Standards for Ards enforce labelling law; we give a practical second opinion before you print.

What if my labels are already printed?

We’ll still check them. If we find problems, we’ll tell you which are urgent and which can wait for your next print run.

What if I sell in Northern Ireland too?

We check against both sets of rules. EU food law applies in Northern Ireland, so claims must come from the EU register and the address must work for that market. Let us know where your products go and we’ll check the label for each market.

Rules in Northern Ireland

Label rules that apply in Newtownards

Products you sell from Newtownards must meet the Food Supplements (Northern Ireland) Regulations 2003, under the oversight of the Food Standards Agency in Northern Ireland. Locally, food labelling is enforced by the local authority’s trading standards or environmental health officers.

Under the Windsor Framework, Northern Ireland follows EU food law. Health claims must come from the EU register, and the business address on the label must be in Northern Ireland or the EU.

A good first step is our label requirements checklist, then review your health claims, %NRV figures and nutrient guides.
