brimar.com does not allow embedding, so this is Google's rendering of the page.
Speed
Reduce unused JavaScript
1.6 s · 232 KiBAbout 232 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 1.6 s faster on a phone.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
2.0 MB4 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (2.0 MB).
Mobile performance score: 75
75/100Your mobile performance score is 75 (desktop: 100). Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.
Improve image delivery
733 KiB12 images could be 733 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.
Google Tag Manager adds 255 ms
255 msGoogle Tag Manager costs a phone 255 ms of main-thread work and 457 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.
7 third-party services on the page
7 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager, Clarity and Bing Ads and others), adding 520 KiB and 314 ms of main-thread time.
Render-blocking requests
200 ms1 file blocks the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining it could save about 200 ms.
3 long tasks on the main thread
3 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 78 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Phones get a much slower page than desktops
Desktop scores 100 but mobile only 75. A gap that wide usually means heavy scripts and images that hit phones hardest.
Legacy JavaScript
10 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 10 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.

Main-thread work: 0.6 s
A phone's processor spends 0.6 s on main-thread work while loading, 317 ms of it running JavaScript. That is comfortably low.
Server response: 1 ms
1 msYour server sent the HTML in 1 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.
Core Web Vitals
Largest Contentful Paint: 7.0 s
7.0 sYour largest element takes 7.0 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the text “The Safety Solution Company”.
Time to Interactive: 7.0 s
7.0 sThe page becomes fully interactive after 7.0 s. Good is under 3.8 s.
21 images without width and height
21 images have no width and height attributes, so the layout jumps as each one loads.
Not enough real-visitor data yet
Chrome's UX Report (opens in a new tab) has too little real-visitor traffic for this site, so the figures here are lab measurements from Google's test phone on a throttled 4G connection.
4 checks passed
Speed Index: 3.1 s
3.1 sVisually, the page fills in at 3.1 s (Speed Index), inside the 3.4 s “good” threshold.
First Contentful Paint: 1.5 s
1.5 sThe first text or image appears after 1.5 s, inside the 1.8 s “good” threshold.
Total Blocking Time: 65 ms
65 msScripts block the page for only 65 ms while loading. Good is under 200 ms.
Cumulative Layout Shift: 0
0The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0, good is under 0.1).
Images and page weight
Page weight: 4.3 MB in 51 requests
4.3 MBYour homepage downloads 4.3 MB in 51 requests on a phone: media 2.9 MB (1), images 808 KiB (26) and scripts 516 KiB (10). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
3 images in older formats
3 images (148 KiB) 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 1.2 g of CO₂ per visit
1.21 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.21 g of CO₂e: 144.9 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
2 checks passed
Images load when needed
Images below the first screen wait until the visitor scrolls to them.
Images are sized for phones
No image is downloaded at more than three times the size it is drawn on a phone.
Accessibility
Links must have discernible text (1 element)
Links must have discernible text: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated serious by axe-core.
2 checks passed
Every image has alt text
All 21 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.
30 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 31 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 30 passed and 1 failed. 1 more 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.
Meta description is long (179 characters)
Your meta description is 179 characters; Google truncates after about 160, so the end of your pitch is cut.
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.
Only 3 internal links
The homepage links to only 3 pages on your own site, so visitors and crawlers find few routes into the rest of it.
No X (Twitter) card tag
No twitter:card tag. X falls back to Open Graph, which is incomplete here.
5 checks passed
One H1 headline
Your main headline reads: “Brimar Industries”.
Title: 59 characters
Your title is a healthy 59 characters: “Brimar Industries - Pipe Markers, Safety Signs, Wafer Seals”.
Canonical URL set
The canonical URL is https://www.brimar.com/.
robots.txt in place
robots.txt is in place.
XML sitemap found
Your XML sitemap is reachable at https://www.brimar.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 (375 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.
Best practices
1 broken image
1 image failed to load on a phone, for example https://bat.bing.com/action/0?ti=4028831&Ver=2&mid=0d64d0d4-433c-48e1-a83a-3a5a408851a4&bo=1&sid=28fa6b00cbd011f18d2ca19de8c5527f&vid=28faa980cbd011f1980ffbd80c3d497d&vids=1&msclkid=N&pi=918639831&lg=.
17 small tap targets
17 of 33 tappable elements near the top of the page are smaller than 24 px, hard to hit with a thumb.
1 JavaScript error while loading
1 error was logged to the browser console while the page loaded, for example “Failed to load resource: net::ERR_FAILED”.
1 checks passed
Mobile viewport set
The page declares a mobile viewport.
Security and trust
1 broken link to your own pages
1 link from your homepage to your own site is broken, for example https://www.brimar.com/cdn-cgi/l/email-protection (404).
No Content-Security-Policy
No Content-Security-Policy header, the main browser-side defence against injected scripts.
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.
Deprecated X-XSS-Protection
X-XSS-Protection is set to “1; mode=block”; the header is deprecated and can introduce bugs. Use 0 or remove it.
No security.txt
There is no /.well-known/security.txt telling researchers how to report a security problem to you.
6 checks passed
Served over HTTPS
The homepage is served over HTTPS (brimar.com).
Valid certificate (56 days left)
The certificate from Google Trust Services · WE1 verifies for brimar.com and is valid for another 56 days.
Protected from clickjacking
X-Frame-Options or a frame-ancestors policy stops other sites framing yours.
HSTS enabled
Strict-Transport-Security is set, so browsers always use https.
http:// redirects to https
http://brimar.com redirects to the secure version.
HTTP/2 and HTTP/3
The server speaks HTTP/2 and advertises HTTP/3, so browsers load many files over one connection.
Domain and trust
No CAA record
brimar.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
brimar.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 28 years old
28 yearsbrimar.com was registered in Apr 1998 through Gandi SAS. An established domain carries more trust with email providers and search engines.
Registered until Apr 2027
brimar.com is registered until Apr 2027.
Content and conversion
No call to action on the first screen
On a phone, there is no call to action on the first screen: visitors have to scroll to find out what to do next.
No calls to action
We found no call-to-action buttons or links (such as “Book a demo” or “Get a quote”) anywhere on the homepage.
No social proof
No testimonials, customer logos, ratings or customer counts on the homepage: nothing tells a new visitor that others already trust you.
Local business without LocalBusiness data
Your homepage shows a street address but no LocalBusiness JSON-LD, so Google and AI assistants have to guess your address, hours and phone from the page text.
No form on the homepage
There is no form on the homepage, so every lead has to click through to another page first.
No map or directions link
There is no link to Google or Apple Maps. A directions link is one tap for a phone visitor.
About 370 words of copy
The homepage carries about 370 words of visible text.
5 checks passed
Analytics in place
Analytics detected: Google Analytics, Microsoft Clarity and Cloudflare Web Analytics.
Direct contact links
Visitors can reach you directly: 3 phone links and 0 email links.

Phone number on the homepage
Your phone number is on the homepage as a tap-to-call link.
Risk reducer mentioned
A guarantee or risk reducer (money-back, free trial, no credit card or similar) is mentioned on the page.
Email authentication
DMARC is monitor-only (p=none)
DMARC is set to p=none, so mail pretending to be brimar.com is still delivered. Reports are on, so moving to quarantine is the next step.
Email authentication score: 70/100
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 in place (~all)
An SPF record lists your sending servers and marks other mail as suspicious (~all): “v=spf1 a mx include:spf.protection.outlook.com include:servers.mcsv.net include:mailgun.org include:22740189.spf54.hubs…”.
DKIM signing found
A DKIM key is published (selector “selector1”, “selector2” and “k1”), so receivers can verify mail really came from you.
Privacy and tracking
5 trackers load before any consent
5Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Ads, Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, Microsoft Ads and Microsoft Clarity (measured from a US location before any click). No consent tool was detected. Visitors from the EU, UK and several US states must be asked first.
7 cookies set on arrival
7Opening the homepage sets 7 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.
12 other companies contacted
