What the check covers for West Linton brands
Send your artwork or draft copy. We review it against the Food Supplements (Scotland) 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 Scotland
Label rules that apply in West Linton
Products you sell from West Linton must meet the Food Supplements (Scotland) Regulations 2003, overseen by Food Standards Scotland. In the Scottish Borders, food labelling is enforced by the council’s trading standards or environmental health team for the Scottish Borders.
Scotland has its own food regulator, but the supplement labelling rules match England and Wales, so one label works across Great Britain.
A good first step is our label requirements checklist, then check your health claims, %NRV figures and nutrient guides.

Questions from West Linton brands
Who enforces food labelling in the Scottish Borders?
Food labelling is enforced by the local council’s trading standards or environmental health team for the Scottish Borders, overseen nationally by Food Standards Scotland. For advice councils must respect, you can set up a Primary Authority partnership with a council.

No. We work online and deliver across the UK, so it makes no difference where you’re based. West Linton orders go by tracked courier to EH46.

No. Trading Standards for the Scottish Borders enforce the law; we give an independent practical check before you print.
Can you check a label that’s already printed?
We can still check them. If we find problems, we’ll tell you what must change now and what can wait for the next run.
