ambu.com does not allow embedding, so this is Google's rendering of the page.
Speed
Improve image delivery
7.0 s · 1.4 MB2 images could be 1.4 MB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 7.0 s faster on a phone.
Render-blocking requests
1.9 s2 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 1.9 s.
4,915 HTML elements
The page has 4,915 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.
8 third-party services on the page
8 third-party services load with your homepage (videomarketingplatform.co, cloudfront.net and cookieinformation.com and others), adding 7.0 MB and 882 ms of main-thread time.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
600 ms · 913 KiB24 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (913 KiB).
Mobile performance score: 55
55/100Your mobile performance score is 55 (desktop: 78). Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.
cloudfront.net adds 145 ms
145 mscloudfront.net costs a phone 145 ms of main-thread work and 6.2 MB of downloads while your page loads. Loading it after the page is usable, or only on the pages that need it, takes that off the critical path.
videomarketingplatform.co adds 635 ms
635 msvideomarketingplatform.co costs a phone 635 ms of main-thread work and 726 KiB of downloads while your page loads. Loading it after the page is usable, or only on the pages that need it, takes that off the critical path.
Reduce unused JavaScript
465 KiBAbout 465 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page.
Reduce unused CSS
300 ms · 116 KiBAbout 116 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 300 ms faster on a phone.
Main-thread work: 2.5 s
A phone's processor spends 2.5 s on main-thread work while loading, 1.2 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
10 long tasks on the main thread
10 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 148 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Legacy JavaScript
9 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 9 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need.
Chained critical requests
Critical files load one after another instead of in parallel (3 chains). Preconnecting to key origins and preloading the hero image shortens the chain.
Forced reflow
Scripts make the browser recalculate the layout repeatedly while the page loads, which wastes processor time on phones.
Minify CSS
3 KiB3 KiB could be saved by minifying CSS.

Core Web Vitals
Fails Core Web Vitals for real visitors
Real Chrome users on phones do not pass Google's Core Web Vitals on this page (28-day field data from the Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab)). Google uses this in ranking.

Total Blocking Time: 296 ms
296 msScripts block taps and scrolling for 296 ms in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.
5 images without width and height
5 images have no width and height attributes, so the layout jumps as each one loads.
Tap response (INP) held steady for real visitors
0%Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-17, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 132 ms to 131 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

Images and page weight
Page weight: 7.6 MB in 77 requests
7.6 MBYour homepage downloads 7.6 MB in 77 requests on a phone: images 6.1 MB (42), scripts 942 KiB (12) and fonts 288 KiB (5). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
5 images over 500 KB
5 images weigh 5.5 MB together. On a phone connection a single image that size takes seconds.
1 image far larger than shown
509 KiB1 image is downloaded at several times the size a phone draws it, for example getimage.ashx at 1,440 px wide, shown at 390 px. Resized copies would save about 509 KiB.
8 images in older formats
8 images (5.7 MB) are JPEG, PNG or GIF. The same pictures as WebP or AVIF are usually much smaller at the same quality, and every current browser shows them.
About 2.1 g of CO₂ per visit
2.14 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 2.14 g of CO₂e: 257.1 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
1 checks passed
Images load when needed
Images below the first screen wait until the visitor scrolls to them.
Accessibility
1 button without a name
1 button has no accessible name, so screen readers announce just “button”.
Unlabelled dropdowns
1 dropdown has no label.
Frames without titles
3 frames have no title, so screen-reader users cannot tell what they contain.
Form elements should have a visible label (3 elements)
Form elements should have a visible label: 3 elements on the page fail this check, rated serious by axe-core.
2 tap targets too small
2 tap targets are too small or too close together to hit reliably with a finger.
23 images without alt text
23 images have no alt text, which hurts accessibility and image search.
Document should not have more than one banner landmark (1 element)
Document should not have more than one banner landmark: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.
Landmarks should have a unique role or role/label/title (i.e. accessible name) combination (1 element)
Landmarks should have a unique role or role/label/title (i.e. accessible name) combination: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.
All page content should be contained by landmarks (1 element)
All page content should be contained by landmarks: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.
5 links without text
5 visible links have no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where they go.
1 form field without a label
1 form field has no label, so screen readers announce an empty box and autofill guesses.
Headings should not be empty (1 element)
Headings should not be empty: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated minor by axe-core.
Headings skip levels
Headings skip levels (h2 → h4, h2 → h4 and h2 → h4), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.
1 checks passed
47 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 59 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 47 passed and 12 failed. 2 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
SEO
No structured data
No structured data (JSON-LD), so Google can't show rich results such as your logo, ratings or FAQs.
No social preview image
No Open Graph image (also missing: og:title, og:description), so links shared on LinkedIn, Slack or Facebook show no preview picture.
3 links with vague text
3 links use generic text like “click here” or “learn more”, which tells Google nothing about the page behind them.
No X (Twitter) card tag
No twitter:card tag. X falls back to Open Graph, which is incomplete here.
203 internal links, 21 external
The homepage links to 203 pages on ambu.com and 21 external pages.
6 checks passed
Meta description: 138 characters
Your meta description is 138 characters: “Get product, career, investor and contact information about Ambu, a medical device company that helps healthcare profes…”.
One H1 headline
Your main headline reads: “Single-use devices for inside and outside hospitals”.
Title: 41 characters
Your title is a healthy 41 characters: “Ambu - Single-use devices that save lives”.
Canonical URL set
The canonical URL is https://www.ambu.com/.
robots.txt in place
robots.txt is in place and points crawlers to your sitemap.
XML sitemap found
Your XML sitemap is reachable at https://www.ambu.com/sitemap.xml.
AI search readiness
No Organization structured data
There is no Organization (or LocalBusiness) JSON-LD, so search engines and AI assistants have no machine-readable facts about who runs the site: its name, logo, profiles and contact details.
No llms.txt
There is no /llms.txt, a short Markdown guide to your key pages for AI tools (llmstxt.org). It is optional and few AI tools read it yet, so treat it as a cheap extra.
2 checks passed
AI answer engines may read the site
Your robots.txt lets the crawlers behind ChatGPT search, Claude and Perplexity read the site and cite it in answers.
Text is in the HTML
Your server sends the page's text in the HTML (815 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.
Other pages
7 pages without a meta description
/endoscopy/single-use-endoscopy, /endoscopy/pulmonology/products, /endoscopy/pulmonology/ascope-4-broncho-guys-study, /endoscopy/pulmonology/procedures/bal-bw, /endoscopy/pulmonology/procedures/bedside-pdt and /endoscopy/pulmonology/procedures/training and 1 other have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.
1 link to non-canonical URLs
Your homepage links to 1 page by a URL that isn't its canonical one, for example /endoscopy/pulmonology/bronchoscope-availability, whose canonical is /endoscopy/single-use-endoscopy/workflow. Linking straight to the canonical URL saves crawlers a detour and keeps ranking signals on one address.
15 internal pages checked
We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 127 found) and read each the way a search engine does.

Missing source maps
Large scripts ship without source maps.
2 checks passed
No console errors
No JavaScript errors were logged while the page loaded on a phone.
Mobile viewport set
The page declares a mobile viewport.
Security and trust
No Referrer-Policy
No Referrer-Policy header, so full URLs can leak to the sites you link to.
No Permissions-Policy
No Permissions-Policy header to switch off camera, microphone and location for embedded content.
No security.txt
There is no /.well-known/security.txt telling researchers how to report a security problem to you.
8 checks passed
Served over HTTPS
The homepage is served over HTTPS (ambu.com).
Valid certificate (74 days left)
The certificate from Let's Encrypt · YR1 verifies for ambu.com and is valid for another 74 days.
Protected from clickjacking
X-Frame-Options or a frame-ancestors policy stops other sites framing yours.
Content-Security-Policy set
A Content-Security-Policy is set, the main browser-side defence against injected scripts.
HSTS enabled
Strict-Transport-Security is set, so browsers always use https.
http:// redirects to https
http://ambu.com redirects to the secure version.
HTTP/2
The server speaks HTTP/2, so browsers load many files over one connection.
All 59 links work
All 59 links checked from your homepage (40 internal, 19 external) answered without errors; 11 did not answer within 5 s.
Domain and trust
No CAA record
ambu.com has no CAA record, so any certificate authority may issue a certificate for it. A CAA record naming your provider (for example letsencrypt.org) closes that door.
DNSSEC is off
ambu.com's DNS answers are not signed. DNSSEC stops attackers forging them to send visitors or email elsewhere; most registrars switch it on in a click, though most sites still run without it.
2 checks passed
Domain is 30 years old
30 yearsambu.com was registered in Apr 1996 through GoDaddy.com, LLC. An established domain carries more trust with email providers and search engines.
Registered until Apr 2028
ambu.com is registered until Apr 2028.
Content and conversion
Thin social proof
Social proof on the homepage: 1 trust badge. Pairing it with named testimonials or customer logos makes it far more convincing.
No direct contact details
No phone number or email link on the homepage, so ready-to-buy visitors have one fewer way to reach you.
No risk reducer
No guarantee or risk reducer (money-back, free trial, no credit card) is mentioned, which is often what tips a hesitant visitor.
About 625 words of copy
The homepage carries about 625 words of visible text.
4 checks passed
Clear next step on the first screen
On a phone, the first screen shows a clear next step: “LEARN MORE”.
8 calls to action
The homepage has 8 calls to action, for example “SCHEDULE A MEETING”, “Download summary” and “Contact us”.
1 short form
A short form (1 field at most) is right on the homepage.
Analytics in place
Analytics detected: Google Tag Manager.
Email authentication
DMARC is monitor-only (p=none)
DMARC is set to p=none, so mail pretending to be ambu.com is still delivered. Reports are on, so moving to quarantine is the next step.
Email authentication score: 75/100
Email authentication: SPF record 25 points, plus 15 when it ends in -all (10 for ~all); DMARC record 25, plus 25 for a reject policy (15 for quarantine); a DKIM key on a common selector 10.
2 checks passed
SPF with a strict ending (-all)
An SPF record lists your sending servers and tells receivers to reject anything else: “v=spf1 ip4:20.47.149.138 ip4:23.249.208.0/20 ip4:23.251.224.0/19 ip4:35.190.247.0/24 ip4:35.191.0.0/16 ip4:37.188.97.18…”.
DKIM signing found
A DKIM key is published (selector “selector1”, “s1” and “s2”), so receivers can verify mail really came from you.
Privacy and tracking
5 cookies set on arrival
5Opening the homepage sets 5 cookies (measured from a US location before any click).
No consent tool detected
No known cookie consent tool loads with the page. Some sites build their own banner, and some only show one to visitors from the EU.
