What the check covers for Portincaple 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. It’s a practical review, not legal advice. For assured advice, a Primary Authority partnership is the next step. The check covers any label, whoever designed or printed it, not just our own.

Supplement labelling rules for Portincaple

Scotland has its own food regulator, but the supplement labelling rules match England and Wales, so one label works across Great Britain.

Common questions in Portincaple
Is your check the same as a Trading Standards check?
No. Trading Standards for Argyll and Bute enforce the law; we give an independent practical check before you print.
Do you check labels for Northern Ireland as well as Great Britain?
We can check for both. EU food law applies in Northern Ireland, 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.
Who checks supplement labels in Argyll and Bute?
Food labelling is enforced by the local council’s trading standards or environmental health team for Argyll and Bute, with national oversight from Food Standards Scotland. For advice councils must respect, consider a Primary Authority partnership with a council.
What does the report look like?
A written report, with every point marked as fine, advised or must fix, plus suggested wording.
What if my labels are 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.
