Rules in England
Labelling law for supplements from Spath
Supplements sold from Spath must meet the Food Supplements (England) Regulations 2003, under the oversight of the Food Standards Agency. Locally, food labelling is enforced by the local authority’s trading standards or environmental health officers for Staffordshire.
You can sell the same label in Scotland and Wales, since the supplement rules are the same across Great Britain.

What the check covers for Spath 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. This is a practical check rather than 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.

FAQs for Spath
How quickly do you review a label?
We’ll tell you the turnaround when you send your artwork.
Is this the same as Trading Standards advice?
No. Trading Standards for Staffordshire enforce the law; we give an independent practical check before you print.
Who checks supplement labels in Staffordshire?
Food labelling is enforced by the local council’s trading standards or environmental health team for Staffordshire, overseen nationally by the Food Standards Agency. If you want assured advice, you can set up a Primary Authority partnership with a council.
Do you send samples?
Yes, we can. Request a sample pack and we’ll send it to you in Spath, so you can feel the materials and finishes before you order.
What if I sell in Northern Ireland too?
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 be in NI or the EU. Tell us where you sell and we’ll check the label for each market.
