What the check covers for Summerlands 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. 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.

Rules in England
Labelling law for supplements from Summerlands
Supplements sold from Summerlands 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 Cumbria.
One label works across England, Scotland and Wales, because the supplement rules match across Great Britain.

Summerlands questions
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. Tell us where you sell and we’ll check the label for each market.
Is your check the same as a Trading Standards check?
No. Trading Standards for Cumbria enforce labelling law; we give an independent practical check before you print.
Who checks supplement labels in Cumbria?
Supplement labelling is enforced by the local council’s trading standards or environmental health team for Cumbria, overseen nationally by the Food Standards Agency. For advice councils must respect, consider a Primary Authority partnership with a council.
Do you send samples?
Yes. Request a sample pack and we’ll post it to your Summerlands address, so you can feel the materials and finishes before you order.
Can you check a label that’s already printed?
We’ll still check them. If we find problems, we’ll tell you which are urgent and which can wait for your next print run.
