Speed

10 to fix43
  • Render-blocking requests

    3.0 s

    2 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 3.0 s.

  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    1.2 s · 879 KiB

    About 879 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 1.2 s faster on a phone.

  • Mobile performance score: 43

    43/100

    Your mobile performance score is 43. Under 50 is Google's “poor” band: many phone visitors leave before the page is usable.

  • Main-thread work: 4.3 s

    A phone's processor spends 4.3 s on main-thread work while loading, 2.9 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.

  • 8 third-party services on the page

    8 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager, omappapi.com and Facebook and others), adding 1.5 MB and 1.5 s of main-thread time.

  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    900 ms · 699 KiB

    42 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (699 KiB).

  • Google Tag Manager adds 676 ms

    676 ms

    Google Tag Manager costs a phone 676 ms of main-thread work and 646 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 CSS

    600 ms · 105 KiB

    About 105 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 600 ms faster on a phone.

  • Legacy JavaScript

    300 ms · 48 KiB

    Polyfills for old browsers add 48 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need. Google estimates it would make the page about 300 ms faster on a phone.

  • 2,246 HTML elements

    The page has 2,246 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.

  • 16 long tasks on the main thread

    16 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 247 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • Improve image delivery

    51 KiB

    4 images could be 51 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.

  • Font display

    50 ms

    Web fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 50 ms).

  • 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.

1 checks passed
  • Server response: 21 ms

    21 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 21 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

8 to fix100
  • 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.

  • Time to Interactive: 21.9 s

    21.9 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 21.9 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

  • Largest Contentful Paint: 7.9 s

    7.9 s

    Your largest element takes 7.9 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the text “By clicking “Accept All Cookies”, you agree to the storing …”.

  • First Contentful Paint: 3.8 s

    3.8 s

    The first text or image appears after 3.8 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.

  • Total Blocking Time: 945 ms

    945 ms

    Scripts block taps and scrolling for 945 ms in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.

  • Real-user TTFB: 1.2 s

    1.2 s

    Real visitors wait 1.2 s for your server to start answering (75th percentile). Good is under 800 ms.

  • Speed Index: 5.2 s

    5.2 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 5.2 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

  • 5 images without width and height

    5 images have no width and height attributes, so the layout jumps as each one loads.

7 checks passed
  • Real-user LCP: 2.0 s

    2.0 s

    Real visitors wait 2.0 s for the largest content to appear (75th percentile). Good is under 2.5 s.

  • Real-user INP: 179 ms

    179 ms

    Real visitors wait 179 ms for the page to respond to a tap (75th percentile). Good is under 200 ms.

  • Real-user CLS: 0.02

    0.02

    For real visitors the layout shifts by 0.02 (75th percentile). Good is under 0.1.

  • Real-user FCP: 1.7 s

    1.7 s

    Real visitors see the first content after 1.7 s (75th percentile). Good is under 1.8 s.

  • Tap response (INP) got 44% faster for real visitors

    -44%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-24, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 326 ms to 182 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

  • Largest content (LCP) got 53% faster for real visitors

    -53%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-24, real Chrome visitors' largest content (lcp) went from 4.3 s to 2.0 s at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0.023

    0.023

    The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0.023, good is under 0.1).

Images and page weight

1 to fix70
  • Page weight: 5.5 MB in 134 requests

    5.5 MB

    Your homepage downloads 5.5 MB in 134 requests on a phone: media 2.4 MB (2), scripts 2.1 MB (54) and fonts 365 KiB (7). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • About 1.6 g of CO₂ per visit

    1.55 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.55 g of CO₂e: 186.1 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

3 checks passed
  • Images use modern formats

    Every sizeable image is WebP, AVIF or SVG.

  • 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

4 to fixGoogle 8793
  • 49 text elements with low contrast

    49 text elements don't have enough contrast against the background to read easily, especially outdoors on a phone.

  • 16 tap targets too small

    16 tap targets are too small or too close together to hit reliably with a finger.

  • 3 images without alt text

    3 images have no alt text, which hurts accessibility and image search.

  • All page content should be contained by landmarks (2 elements)

    All page content should be contained by landmarks: 2 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

  • Headings skip levels

    Headings skip levels (h1 → h3 and h2 → h4), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.

  • Elements with visible text labels do not have matching accessible names.

    Elements with visible text labels do not have matching accessible names. (1 element).

1 checks passed
  • 46 automated accessibility rules passed

    axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 51 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 46 passed and 5 failed. 4 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

3 to fixGoogle 8592
  • No structured data

    No structured data (JSON-LD), so Google can't show rich results such as your logo, ratings or FAQs.

  • No favicon declared

    No favicon is declared in the HTML, so browser tabs and Google's mobile results may show a generic icon.

  • 4 links with vague text

    4 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 set, so this is minor.

  • 142 internal links, 4 external

    The homepage links to 142 pages on roxtec.com and 4 external pages.

7 checks passed
  • Meta description: 129 characters

    Your meta description is 129 characters: “We are the world leader in cable and pipe seals. We make sure you can protect life and assets, wherever and whatever yo…”.

  • One H1 headline

    Your main headline reads: “Why use Roxtec in HVDC projects?”.

  • Title: 54 characters

    Your title is a healthy 54 characters: “Sealing solutions for cables and pipes | Roxtec Global”.

  • Canonical URL set

    The canonical URL is https://www.roxtec.com/en/.

  • Open Graph tags complete

    Open Graph tags are complete, so shared links show a title, description and image.

  • 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.roxtec.com/sitemap.index.xml.

AI search readiness

1 to fix88
  • 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.

3 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 (1,156 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

  • llms.txt published

    The site publishes https://www.roxtec.com/llms.txt (6 KiB, 29 links), a plain-text guide to the site for AI tools.

Other pages

3 to fix83
  • 2 pages share a title

    / and https://www.roxtec.com/en all use the title “Sealing solutions for cables and pipes | Roxtec Global”. Search engines can't tell which page to show for a search, so each competes with the others.

  • 1 page without a meta description

    https://www.roxtec.com/en/products/solutions has no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.

  • 1 page without an H1

    https://www.roxtec.com/en/knowledge-library has no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.

  • 15 internal pages checked

    We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 100 found) and read each the way a search engine does.

4 checks passed
  • Linked pages load

    All 15 pages we checked loaded without an error.

  • Canonical URLs point to themselves

    No page we checked hands its ranking to a different URL.

  • No linked page is hidden from search

    None of the pages we checked carries a noindex tag.

  • Every page has a title

    All 15 pages that loaded have a <title>.

Best practices

4 to fixGoogle 7770
  • 2 broken images

    2 images failed to load on a phone, for example https://www.roxtec.com/.

  • 26 small tap targets

    26 of 54 tappable elements near the top of the page are smaller than 24 px, hard to hit with a thumb.

  • Deprecated browser APIs

    The page uses 1 deprecated browser API that will stop working in future browsers (“Unload event listeners are deprecated and will be removed.”).

  • 3 JavaScript errors while loading

    3 errors were logged to the browser console while the page loaded, for example “Failed to load resource: net::ERR_FAILED”.

  • Missing source maps

    Large scripts ship without source maps.

1 checks passed
  • Mobile viewport set

    The page declares a mobile viewport.

Content and conversion

2 to fix81
  • 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 map but no LocalBusiness JSON-LD, so Google and AI assistants have to guess your address, hours and phone from the page text.

  • No opening hours

    The homepage shows no opening hours. If customers visit or call, show when.

  • 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 894 words of copy

    The homepage carries about 894 words of visible text.

6 checks passed
  • Clear next step on the first screen

    On a phone, the first screen shows a clear next step: “Contact”.

  • 8 calls to action

    The homepage has 8 calls to action, for example “Contact”, “Learn more and sign up” and “Download”.

  • 1 short form

    A short form (0 fields at most) is right on the homepage.

  • Analytics in place

    Analytics detected: Google Tag Manager.

  • Direct contact links

    Visitors can reach you directly: 2 phone links and 1 email link.

  • Phone number on the homepage

    Your phone number is on the homepage as a tap-to-call link.

Privacy and tracking

  • 7 trackers load before any consent

    7

    Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Ads, Google Tag Manager, LinkedIn Insight, Meta Pixel and Microsoft Ads and 2 mores (measured from a US location before any click). A consent tool (OneTrust) is installed; check it blocks these until visitors agree where the law requires it.

  • 30 cookies set on arrival

    30

    Opening the homepage sets 30 cookies (measured from a US location before any click).

  • 36 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 36 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.

1 checks passed
  • Consent tool: OneTrust

    A consent management tool (OneTrust) loads with the page.

Security, domain, email and software versions

The security, domain and email checks, software and plugin versions, and any app with a known security problem are visible only to people at roxtec.com, because details like these could help someone attack a site. Every review keeps them private, whatever they found.
