Rules in Scotland
Label rules that apply in Blackhill
Products you sell from Blackhill must meet the Food Supplements (Scotland) Regulations 2003, under the oversight of Food Standards Scotland. Locally, food labelling is enforced by council trading standards or environmental health staff.
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 review your health claims, %NRV figures and nutrient guides.
Pouch options

Printed pouches for Blackhill brands
When a product is selling steadily, a printed pouch is often the next step from labels. We print your design directly onto the pouch, with the same compliance check as our labels. Still testing a product? Start with labels on stock pouches and move to printed pouches once it sells. Resealable zips, clear windows and tear notches are all available, in a matt, gloss or soft-touch finish.

Common questions in Blackhill
What if I sell in Northern Ireland too?
We can check for both. 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.
Who checks supplement labels in the Orkney Islands?
Supplement labelling is enforced by the local council’s trading standards or environmental health team for the Orkney Islands, with national oversight from Food Standards Scotland. For advice councils must respect, consider a Primary Authority partnership with a council.
Are the pouches recyclable?
We offer mono-material pouches, designed for recycling where collection exists. Check the specification before you make any claim on pack.
Do I need to be based in Blackhill to order?
No. We take orders online from anywhere in the UK, so your location doesn’t matter. Blackhill deliveries go by tracked delivery to KW15.
Can I see a sample before ordering?
Yes, we can. Ask for a sample pack and we’ll send it to you in Blackhill, so you can feel the materials and finishes.
