What the check covers for Ridgewell brands

Send your artwork or draft copy. We review it against the Food Supplements (England) 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. This is a practical check rather than legal advice. For assured advice, a Primary Authority partnership is the next step. We check labels designed and printed anywhere, not just our own.

Ridgewell questions

What do I get back?

A written report, with every point marked fine, advised or must fix, plus suggested wording.

Who enforces food labelling in Essex?

Food labelling is enforced by the local council’s trading standards or environmental health team for Essex, with national oversight from the Food Standards Agency. For advice councils must respect, you can set up a Primary Authority partnership with a council.

Which labelling rules apply to supplements sold from Ridgewell?

Ridgewell is in England, so the Food Supplements (England) Regulations 2003 apply, as well as the general food information rules. Health claims must come from the GB nutrition and health claims register.

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.

Do you send samples?

Yes. Ask for a sample pack and we’ll send it to you in Ridgewell, showing our materials and finishes before you order.
