Compliance and regulatory support for supplements in Europe
Launching a supplement brand in Europe requires more than a good product. Compliance with EU and UK regulations is essential for market entry, consumer trust and long-term success. At Techlabs Europe, we simplify this process by ensuring that your products meet all relevant standards while you focus on building your brand.
What compliance means in supplements
Compliance covers the entire regulatory framework that applies to supplements, including:
- EU and UK labelling regulations (Regulation (EU) 1169/2011, retained in UK law).
- Nutrition and Health Claims Regulation (NHCR).
- Additive and excipient authorisations.
- Certificates of free sale issued by manufacturing plants.
- Novel Food considerations, where applicable.

At Techlabs Europe we support you in every step of the compliance journey:
- Formula validation: we ensure your idea is not only innovative, but also technically viable and aligned with EU/UK rules.
- Stability testing: essential for safety, shelf life and regulatory approval.
- Labelling and packaging checks: we review or design your labels to guarantee they meet legal requirements.
- Certificates of free sale: provided directly by the certified manufacturing plant.
