You get a written report you can act on or pass to your designer. The check covers any label, whoever designed or printed it, including ones from other printers. This is a practical check rather than legal advice. For assured advice, a Primary Authority partnership is the next step.

FAQs for Shorwell

Who checks supplement labels in Isle of Wight?

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

Can I see a sample before ordering?

Yes, we can. Request a sample pack and we’ll send it to you in Shorwell, showing our materials and finishes.

Do you only work with Shorwell businesses?

No. We work online and deliver across the UK, so it makes no difference where you’re based. Shorwell deliveries go out by tracked courier to PO30.

Is your check the same as a Trading Standards check?

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

Do you check labels for Northern Ireland as well as Great Britain?

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 be in NI or the EU. Tell us where you sell and we’ll cover both.
