Printed pouches for powders, gummies and capsules, delivered to Balfour with the artwork checked against UK labelling rules.

Printed pouches for Balfour brands

Printed pouches look more premium than a labelled stock pouch and save the time of applying labels. Digital printing means short runs per design, so you don’t need to commit to tens of thousands of units. Resealable zips, clear windows and tear notches can all be added, with matt, gloss or soft-touch finishes. Not ready for a printed run? Start with labels on stock pouches and move to printed pouches once it sells.

Rules in Scotland

Label rules that apply in Balfour

Supplements sold from Balfour must meet the Food Supplements (Scotland) Regulations 2003, under the oversight of Food Standards Scotland. Locally, food labelling is enforced by the local authority’s trading standards or environmental health officers for the Orkney Islands.

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, and then check your health claims, %NRV figures and nutrient guides.
