Thorpe Green questions
Is your check the same as a Trading Standards check?
No. Trading Standards for Essex enforce the law; we give an independent practical check before you print.
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 be in NI or the EU. Tell us where you sell and we’ll check the label for each market.
Do you send samples?
Yes, we can. Request a sample pack and we’ll send it to you in Thorpe Green, showing our materials and finishes.
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.
Do I need to be based in Thorpe Green to order?
No. We take orders online from anywhere in the UK, so your location doesn’t matter. Thorpe Green deliveries go out by tracked courier to CO16.
