Supplement label compliance check in Pontlottyn

Send us your label and we’ll tell you, in writing, what must change before it goes on sale from Pontlottyn.

Common questions in Pontlottyn

What if I sell in Northern Ireland too?

We check against both sets of rules. Northern Ireland follows EU food law, so health claims must be on the EU register and the address must work for that market. Tell us where you sell and we’ll cover both.

Who checks supplement labels in Caerphilly?

Food labelling is enforced by the local council’s trading standards or environmental health team for Caerphilly, overseen nationally by the Food Standards Agency in Wales. For advice councils must respect, you can set up a Primary Authority partnership with a council.

How long does a check take?

We confirm the turnaround when you send your label.

Is this the same as Trading Standards advice?

No. Trading Standards for Caerphilly enforce the law; we give an independent practical check before you print.

What do I get back?

A written, point-by-point report, with every point marked fine, advised or must fix, with suggested wording where needed.

What the check covers for Pontlottyn 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. 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.
