Rules in England
Label rules that apply in Puncknowle
Any food supplement sold from Puncknowle must meet the Food Supplements (England) Regulations 2003, regulated nationally by the Food Standards Agency. At a local level, food labelling is enforced by the local authority’s trading standards or environmental health officers for Dorset.
One label works across England, Scotland and Wales, since the supplement rules are the same across Great Britain.

What the check covers for Puncknowle 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. If you need advice councils must respect, a Primary Authority partnership is the next step. The check covers any label, whoever designed or printed it, not just our own.

Puncknowle questions
Can you check a label that’s already printed?
We can still check them. If we find problems, we’ll tell you which are urgent and which can wait for your next print run.
What does the report look like?
A written report, with each item marked as fine, advised or must fix, with suggested wording where needed.
Is your check the same as a Trading Standards check?
No. Trading Standards for Dorset enforce the law; we give a practical second opinion before you print.
Which labelling rules apply to supplements sold from Puncknowle?
Puncknowle is in England, so the Food Supplements (England) Regulations 2003 cover your label, together with the general food information rules. Health claims have to come from the GB nutrition and health claims register.
Do you check labels for Northern Ireland as well as Great Britain?
We check against both sets of rules. EU food law applies in Northern Ireland, so health claims must be on 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.
