UK and EU regulatory advice
To discuss your needs
The UK and EU remain key markets for many food and drink businesses but navigating their legislation can be complex. While much of the EU framework is harmonised, country-specific requirements still apply. In the UK, regulatory divergence has increased post-Brexit, making it more important than ever to stay on top of evolving requirements.
Our expert regulatory team provides up-to-date, practical advice to help you meet all relevant legal requirements, reduce risk, and accelerate time to market. Whether you are launching a new product, updating a label, or responding to regulatory changes, we are here to support.
Areas that we regularly advise on include:
- Food labelling
- Additives
- Nutrition and health claims
- Allergens
- Weights and measures
- HFSS marketing restrictions
- Packaging materials
- Fortification and composition standards
- Sustainability and green claims
- Post-Brexit divergence
From ingredient and labelling compliance checks to regulatory translations and understanding the nuances of the UK or different Member States, we offer practical, expert guidance at every stage of product development and regulatory approval.
