What we have done

  • All interactive elements are accessible via keyboard navigation (Tab, Enter, Escape).
  • Focus indicators are visible on all interactive controls using a high-contrast ring.
  • All text meets WCAG AA colour contrast ratios (minimum 4.5:1 for body text, 3:1 for large text).
  • Page structure uses semantic HTML — headings, landmarks, lists, and tables where appropriate.
  • Images include descriptive alt text; decorative images are marked with empty alt attributes.
  • Forms include associated labels, error messages, and inline validation.
  • The site works with screen readers including VoiceOver (macOS/iOS) and NVDA (Windows).
  • Content reflows at 200% zoom without loss of information.

Known limitations

  • Some third-party embedded content (payment providers, live chat) may not fully meet AA standards. We are working with these providers to improve compliance.
  • PDF product datasheets from manufacturers may not be fully tagged for screen-reader access. Contact us for accessible format alternatives.
  • The product comparison feature relies on a side-by-side visual layout that may be difficult to navigate with screen readers — an accessible table-based view is planned.
