Questions from Springwell brands
Do you send samples?
Yes. Ask for a sample pack and we’ll post it to your Springwell address, showing our materials and finishes before you order.
Is this the same as Trading Standards advice?
No. Trading Standards for Gateshead enforce the law; we give an independent practical check before you print.
Can you check a label that’s already printed?
We’ll still check them. If we find problems, we’ll tell you what must change now and what can wait for the next run.
What if I sell in Northern Ireland too?
We check against both sets of rules. Northern Ireland follows EU food law, so claims must come from the EU register and the address must be in NI or the EU. Tell us where you sell and we’ll cover both.
How long does a check take?
We’ll tell you the turnaround when you send your artwork, and urgent checks can often be done quickly.
What the check covers for Springwell 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. The check covers any label, whoever designed or printed it, including ones from other printers.
