Supplement label compliance check in The Flints
Send us your label and we’ll tell you, in writing, what must change before it goes on sale from The Flints.
What the check covers for The Flints 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. We check labels designed and printed anywhere, including ones from other printers. It’s a practical review, not legal advice. If you need advice councils must respect, a Primary Authority partnership is the next step.

How long does a check take?
We’ll tell you the turnaround when you send your artwork.
Do you check labels for Northern Ireland as well as Great Britain?
