◾️ import background

The Sinanen Holdings Group respects all stakeholders and aims to contribute to the "realization of a sustainable society" through its corporate activities, based on its corporate philosophy of "contributing to the comfortable lives of all customers in the community through energy, housing, and lifestyle services." We recognize that improving the web accessibility of our corporate website is one of our important tasks, and we are constantly making improvements.
We have been testing and adding functions to improve user-friendliness one by one, and this time, when we learned about UniWeb, which is equipped with functions compliant with web accessibility standards, we decided to introduce it because of its convenience and high cost-performance.

 

◾️What is Web Accessibility?

It is not a special accommodation only for the disabled or elderly, but anyone can be in the same situation as a disabled person.

• Temporary injury or illness (e.g., car accident with arm in cast and unable to use arm, eye disease with eye patch and blindness, etc.)
• Age-related changes
• Age-related vision loss (presbyopia, lens changes (yellowish, dark, blurred vision, etc.))
• Eye diseases common in middle-aged and older adults (cataracts, glaucoma, etc.)
  *About half of the patients in their late 70s have cataracts with yellowing changes.
• Age-related hearing loss
• Foreign travelers (if a foreigner who does not understand Japanese is struck by an earthquake while traveling, can he/she obtain evacuation information, etc.)

◾️About UniWeb

UniWeb provides web accessibility features "on the day of deployment" by simply adding a single line of code to all web services.

In order to achieve equal website services for all, we want to put users in various situations, such as those with visual impairments or those who temporarily lose the use of their hands due to injury, in a position to understand correct information through various uses such as voice reading and contrast changes.
