Gas & Marine Equipment is committed to providing a website experience that is accessible, inclusive, and usable for all people in South Africa, including persons with disabilities, in accordance with applicable South African laws and international best-practice accessibility standards.

Our Legal & Ethical Commitment

We strive to support the principles set out in:

  • The Promotion of Equality and Prevention of Unfair Discrimination Act 4 of 2000 (PEPUDA) – promoting equal access and preventing unfair discrimination, including digital spaces.
  • The Constitution of the Republic of South Africa – protecting the rights to equality, dignity, and access to information.
  • The Protection of Personal Information Act (POPIA) – ensuring transparent, understandable, and accessible communication regarding the handling of personal information.

While South Africa does not yet have a specific mandatory national web accessibility standard, we voluntarily follow international best practices such as the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1.

Accessibility Standards We Follow

To enhance accessibility, we aim to meet or exceed relevant WCAG 2.1 AA guidelines, including:

  • Maintaining strong colour contrast
  • Ensuring readable text and clean layout
  • Supporting keyboard-only navigation
  • Designing pages that are compatible with assistive technologies
  • Ensuring forms and interactive elements are labelled clearly

Ongoing Efforts

We recognise that accessibility is a continuous, evolving process. We review our website regularly to identify and resolve accessibility issues. As South African digital-accessibility standards continue to evolve, we will adjust our practices accordingly.

Third-Party Content

Our website may include links or embedded content from third-party providers. We cannot control or guarantee the accessibility of external platforms but aim to partner with services that support inclusive design.
