Accessibility Statement

Microplane is dedicated to making our website, www.microplane.com, accessible and usable for everyone, including people with disabilities. Whether you use a screen reader, a magnifier, voice recognition software, keyboard-only navigation or captions for videos, our goal is for you to find products, get answers and shop with us easily and independently.

Conformance status

The Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) define requirements for making websites more accessible to people with disabilities. Microplane uses WCAG 2.2 Level AA as our standard. Microplane.com is partially conformant with WCAG 2.2 Level AA, which means some parts of the site do not yet fully meet the standard. We are working to close those gaps.

Measures to support accessibility

Microplane takes the following measures to support the accessibility of our website:

  • Include accessibility in how we design and update the website
  • Assign clear responsibility for accessibility within our team
  • Consider accessibility when we add new pages, features and apps
  • Provide a skip-to-content link, visible focus indicators for keyboard users, and descriptive alt text for product and content images
  • Give visitors a way to pause moving content such as background video

Ongoing accessibility maintenance

Our website goes through regular accessibility reviews, including:

  • Quarterly accessibility audits
  • Automated scans for WCAG 2.2 issues
  • Manual checks, such as navigating the site by keyboard
  • Fixing issues we find as part of our regular site updates

Third-party content

Our website includes some content from outside providers, such as checkout and payment, customer reviews, videos and embedded widgets. We do not fully control these features, but we encourage our vendors to meet WCAG 2.2 Level AA and choose accessible options where we can.
