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 Dorset enforce labelling 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 which are urgent and which can wait for your next print run.
