The interface of the Fiotec website has been improved to offer better service to our internal and external public. After approval by the Management and its introduction to managers of all areas, the new website has now been officially launched.

Since its first version, in 2007, the Fiotec website has had more than 843,000 visits from Brazilian users and about 46,000 accesses from foreign countries. After a wide work of analysis, a new layout was created, more dynamic, more accessible, and in line with the institution’s visual identity. The logic of information access has also been changed.

For Janaína Campos, head of Fiotec’s Communication Office, the new version of the website is connected to the institution’s evolution. “This new version, the fourth, is very much in line with the moment Fiotec is going through, with the realization of the Strategic Planning. The version was strategically conceived with a focus on improvements for our partners in terms of displaying our activities, services and assets, all in line with Fiotec’s visual identity”.  

Check out the main changes:

Website size:

The site was built in a more dynamic manner, reducing scrolling to make it easier to browse through all available content.

Accessibility:

One of the main novelties of the site is accessibility. Contrast ensures sufficient contraposition between the color of the text and the background; shortcut keys allow users to browse using the keyboard; the VLibras tool translates the text from Portuguese into Brazilian Sign Language (Libras). About 80% of deaf people have difficulty reading and writing in their country’s language, as their communication experience is extremely visual. Translation into Libras is therefore very important and corroborates one of Fiotec’s main values: inclusion.

Layout:

The change in the layout was made based on an analysis of how our users access the site and on current trends, to make browing easier in the most important areas of the website and to give it a more sophisticated, clean look.
