EHO requirements

What does the EHO require for prep labels?

EHOs expect all food businesses to label pre-prepared food with the product/ item name, the date of preparation or opening, and the expiry or use-by date.

Failure to comply can result in improvement notices, fines, or closure. But beyond compliance, poor labelling leads to food waste, stock mismanagement, and safety risks for your customers.

FAQs

Still got questions?

Labl.it is a commercial kitchen label printer designed to keep you compliant, save time, and reduce waste. Whether you are labelling freshly prepped food or PPDS, it takes care of it all.

Yes! Try Labl.it free for 14 days. If it's not right for your kitchen, no problem - we'll even arrange a free return with a prepaid label. But with 95% of our customers keeping their device after trial, we're almost certain you won't need it.

Most commercial kitchens are up and running in minutes. You can upload your full prep list in seconds using our Menu Analyser tool, or start from scratch and add products as you go.

Labl.it prints EHO prep labels and Natasha's Law (PPDS) ingredients labels. Include pricing, address, batch codes and barcodes - all customisable, all compliant.

Every label is designed to meet EHO and Natasha's Law requirements - automatically pulling in saved prep dates, use-by, allergens (bolded + underlined), and batch numbers.

With up to 75% less admin time, most kitchens say the Labl.it food label printer pays for itself in labour savings alone.

Definitely - book a free 15-minute online demo and discover how the Labl.it food label printer can help your business.

Plans start from £28/month (annual) or £34/month (monthly), working out to as little as 92p a day. This includes the device, ongoing support, an infinite warranty* with next-working-day replacements, and new features added monthly. Labels are sold separately at £1.95 per roll (exc. VAT), always with free delivery. *(excluding accidental damage repairs and loss)

Yes, the device needs internet for initial setup and to sync data, but with our offline mode functionality you don't need a connection to print labels day-to-day.

Yes. Labl.it prints both EHO-compliant prep labels and Natasha's Law (PPDS) labels, with customisable pricing, address, batch codes, and barcodes.

Yes, Labl.it scales from single sites through to 50+ site enterprise groups, with tailored setups for each.

It's Labl.it's centralised management platform, used to control products, expiry rules, allergens, and user permissions from one place. It's especially useful for multi-site teams keeping every kitchen consistent.

Very easy! You can add products manually on the device as you go, or bulk import via the back office using a CSV/spreadsheet. There's also a menu analyser tool that scans your menu and automatically outputs ingredients, foods, and allergens (a team member just needs to review and approve before it's imported).

Yes. Sale labels (PPDS) are pre-loaded and designed to meet Natasha's Law requirements, automatically pulling in custom expiry dates, bolded/underlined allergens, custom fields like address or price, and barcodes for POS scanning.

A PPDS (Pre-Packed for Direct Sale) label is required under Natasha's Law for food made and packed on-site before being sold directly to customers. It must show the product name and a full ingredients list with the 14 major allergens emphasised (bold/underlined). General UK food law also requires that PPDS labels have best-before or use-by dates.

Natasha's Law came into force on 1 October 2021, requiring full ingredient and allergen labelling on all Prepacked for Direct Sale (PPDS) food in the UK. If your business prepares and pre-packs food for customers to pick up without asking, Natasha's Law applies to you.

Yes, Labl.it is best suited for multi-site and enterprise operations. Multi-site and enterprise plans include centralised templates, restrictable permissions & approvals, dedicated onboarding, and a multi-site trial option.

The trial is free for 14 days with free delivery and returns. You can return the device before the trial ends at no cost. If you decide to keep it, your paid subscription starts automatically.

The back office generates a print log, expiry log, and wastage reports, giving you visibility on label volumes printed and stock wastage over time, and where applicable, across venues.

The device tracks expiry automatically based on how food is stored (vacuum packed, cling filmed, frozen, etc.), taking the guesswork out of rotation and reducing reliance on staff memory.

The UK's 14 major allergens (celery, cereals containing gluten, crustaceans, eggs, fish, lupin, milk, molluscs, mustard, nuts, peanuts, sesame seeds, soya, sulphites). Labl.it also lets you add any other custom allergens beyond these 14 if you want to flag more.

Active subscribers get an infinite warranty with next-working-day replacements (excludes accidental damage/loss), backed by a UK-based support team. Support is available 9am-5pm Monday to Friday, but outside of those hours you can speak to our livechat helper or leave us a message to pick up the next working day.

There are two label sizes: single height (40mm, 180 labels per roll) for prep and small ingredient labels, and double height (80mm, 90 labels per roll) for longer or more complex ingredient labels.

The print log records every label printed and who printed it. The back office also keeps a history of label amendments, showing exactly what was changed and by whom.

Yes, staff select best-before or use-by at the time of print for PPDS labels.

Yes, you can print multiple products in one tap with the bulk print feature.

When staff discard an item, they log a reason and the quantity being thrown away. You can also require a photo and notes to be attached, giving you a clear picture of what's being wasted and why.

Yes, you can manage as many locations as you need to from the Labl.it back office. That's the core use of the Labl.it back office: centralised control across venues.

You can order labels directly from the device, with instant on-device ordering, or through the back office.

To export a report, in the back office, simply click on the report and press export, you'll then be emailed a csv file of the report.

Yes. Barcode scanning is built into the device, and every label Labl.it prints carries a barcode. Scan a label to reprint an identical copy instantly, without re-entering anything. The scanner reads in any direction, which makes relabelling in a walk-in fast.

Yes, there's no mandatory long-term contract. Cancellation takes effect at your renewal date, the end of your current month on a monthly plan, or the end of the paid year on an annual plan.

Over 4000+ UK kitchens, from independent cafés to national groups. Labl.it is used by a range of hospitality businesses: restaurants, hotels, caterers, hospitals, schools, QSR, cafes, football stadiums, bakeries, and more.

Labl.it launched in October 2021 as the first handheld device for commercial kitchen prep labelling in the UK, on the day Natasha's Law came into force. The company was built in the UK by hospitality professionals, includes the device in the subscription with an infinite warranty and next-working-day replacements, and has won many awards including Best Commercial Kitchen Label Printer at the 2026 SME News Business Elite Awards and Most Innovative Business at the 2026 UK Hospitality Awards.

Yes. Partner apps run directly on the Labl.it device, including Shield Safety's RiskProof, Food Alert's Alert65, Trail, Telsen, Paddl and Leafe, so kitchens use one device rather than several. Expiry report data also syncs automatically into Trail. Enterprise customers can also tell us which systems they'd want available, and we'll approach that provider directly.
