Questions from The Down brands
What does the report look like?
A written, point-by-point report, with every point marked fine, advised or must fix, plus suggested wording.
Do I need to be based in The Down to order?
No. We work online and deliver across the UK, so your location doesn’t matter. The Down orders go by tracked courier to WV16.
Do you send samples?
Yes, we can. Request a sample pack and we’ll post it to your The Down address, showing our materials and finishes.
Is your check the same as a Trading Standards check?
No. Trading Standards for Shropshire enforce the law; we give a practical second opinion 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 which are urgent and which can wait for your next print run.
What the check covers for The Down 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, including ones from other printers.

Rules in England
Labelling law for supplements from The Down
Supplements sold from The Down must meet the Food Supplements (England) Regulations 2003, overseen by the Food Standards Agency. At a local level, food labelling is enforced by council trading standards or environmental health staff.
The same label can be sold in Scotland and Wales, as Great Britain shares one set of supplement rules.
A good first step is our label requirements checklist, and then check your health claims, %NRV figures and nutrient guides.
