Our commitment

Carpet & Vacuum Expo wants every customer to be able to use this website, including customers with disabilities. We’ve built this site to meet the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.2 Level AA standard, and we continue to test and improve accessibility as the site evolves.

What we’ve done

  • Color and contrast. Body text meets WCAG AA contrast ratios (at least 4.5 to 1 for regular text, 3 to 1 for large text and UI components).
  • Keyboard navigation. Every interactive element (links, buttons, form fields, accordion, before/after slider) is reachable and operable with a keyboard alone. Focus states are visible.
  • Screen readers. We’ve structured the site with semantic HTML (proper headings, lists, landmarks) and added ARIA labels where semantic HTML isn’t sufficient. Images have descriptive alt text.
  • Motion. We respect prefers-reduced-motion. Animations and parallax effects are disabled when users opt out.
  • Forms. Labels are associated with fields. Errors are announced. Success states move focus to a confirmation.
  • Zoom and reflow. The site supports browser zoom up to 200% without content loss or horizontal scrolling.

Known issues

  • Third-party embeds. Room visualizer and Google Maps embeds on showroom pages are third-party widgets whose accessibility we don’t control directly. Where possible, we’ve added skip-links so keyboard users can bypass them.
  • Image gallery lightboxes. Gallery images are keyboard-operable and screen-reader-friendly; the lightbox overlay uses focus-trapping and ESC to close.
