Speed
Reduce unused JavaScript
1.5 s · 483 KiBAbout 483 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 1.5 s faster on a phone.
Render-blocking requests
1.1 s4 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 1.1 s.
Mobile performance score: 70
70/100Your mobile performance score is 70. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.
8 third-party services on the page
8 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager, POWr and Google CDN and others), adding 1.5 MB and 802 ms of main-thread time.
Improve image delivery
450 ms · 147 KiB5 images could be 147 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 450 ms faster on a phone.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
450 ms · 94 KiB5 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (94 KiB).
Google Tag Manager adds 278 ms
278 msGoogle Tag Manager costs a phone 278 ms of main-thread work and 305 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.
Main-thread work: 2.8 s
A phone's processor spends 2.8 s on main-thread work while loading, 1.2 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
2,776 HTML elements
The page has 2,776 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.
Other Google APIs/SDKs adds 41 ms
41 msOther Google APIs/SDKs costs a phone 41 ms of main-thread work and 509 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.
4 long tasks on the main thread
4 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 189 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Reduce unused CSS
150 ms · 36 KiBAbout 36 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.
Minify JavaScript
45 KiB45 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.
Legacy JavaScript
7 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 7 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.

Images and page weight
Page weight: 3.6 MB in 251 requests
3.6 MBYour homepage downloads 3.6 MB in 251 requests on a phone: other files 1.9 MB (177), scripts 1.2 MB (48) and images 401 KiB (14). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
1 image far larger than shown
40 KiB1 image is downloaded at several times the size a phone draws it, for example ST-37_banner_2023.jpg at 1,280 px wide, shown at 350 px. Resized copies would save about 40 KiB.
1 image below the first screen load straight away
1 image further down the page (121 KiB) download before anyone scrolls to it. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.
About 1.0 g of CO₂ per visit
1.03 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.03 g of CO₂e: 124.1 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
