Supplement label compliance check in Westcot

Send us your label and we’ll tell you, in writing, what must change before it goes on sale from Westcot.

Rules in England

Label rules that apply in Westcot

Products you sell from Westcot must meet the Food Supplements (England) Regulations 2003, regulated nationally by the Food Standards Agency. In Oxfordshire, food labelling is enforced by council trading standards or environmental health staff for Oxfordshire.

The same label can be sold in Scotland and Wales, since the supplement rules are the same across Great Britain.

A good first step is our label requirements checklist, then review your health claims, %NRV figures and nutrient guides.

What the check covers for Westcot 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. The check covers any label, whoever designed or printed it, not just our own. This is a practical check rather than legal advice. For assured advice, a Primary Authority partnership is the next step.

Westcot questions

What do I get back?

A written report, with each item marked fine, advised or must fix, plus suggested wording.

How quickly do you review a label?

We confirm the turnaround when you send your label, and urgent checks can often be done quickly.

Do you check labels for Northern Ireland as well as Great Britain?

We can check for both. Northern Ireland follows EU food law, so health claims must be on the EU register and the address must be in NI or the EU. Let us know where your products go and we’ll cover both.

Do you send samples?

Yes. Ask for a sample pack and we’ll send it to you in Westcot, showing our materials and finishes.

Is this the same as Trading Standards advice?

No. Trading Standards for Oxfordshire enforce labelling law; we give a practical second opinion before you print.
