Technical translations, manuals and instructions for use

A shaft is not a tree and a throttle is not a butterfly

Sometimes a single word in one language has more than one meaning: depending on the context

Technical translations are our key strength. Thanks to a team of expert native speaker translators with specific skills in different fields, we can provide multilingual manuals and user guides specifically translated and ready for publishing for the country concerned.
We specialize in the automotive industry, as we have been translation service providers for leading luxury and sports car manufacturers in our area for many years.
Because of the industrial area that surrounds us, we have also gained major experience in the biomedical, dental, pharmaceutical and food sectors.
Among our customers we can also count leading companies in the following industries: industrial automation, packaging, transport, handling and storage systems, thermal engineering, ceramics and glass industry, textiles and clothing, construction, electronics, hardware, multimedia tools, safety and accident prevention systems, agricultural and earth moving machinery.

Medical and scientific translations

At the heart of the matter

We usually focus on the heart of the matter, but it is not always all about the heart

Directions for taking medication, leaflets, medical reports, conference materials and medical presentations, articles from scientific journals or texts, manuals and illustrations for medical products.

The translated documents are reviewed by expert personnel, often medically trained, in order to check the terminology accuracy and content, which is fundamental for this industry.

Legal translations and contracts

Lawyers, Attorneys, Legal Counsels: who does what?

We make a difference.

Contracts, legal and notary deeds, rulings, legal proceedings, Chamber of Commerce certificates and searches, Registry Office certificates, international adoption documentation.

Given their legal status, all contracts and legal or official documents are translated paying the greatest attention to the country they come from or to which they relate: since the legal systems in different countries feature major differences and applications, it is important to have the necessary experience and knowledge to avoid that a body of law, for example Anglo-Saxon, is literally translated into Italian, in a misleading manner.

Documents and certificates of any kind can be sworn at Court and certified by our sworn translators, if required.

Economics and finance

Assets are not activities

But they can be in Italian

Financial Statements and explanatory notes, corporate reports, guarantees and banking documents in general, market analyses, accounting and tax documents.

An extensive multilingual glossary and the help of external expert consultants enable us to deal with this type of text promptly and accurately.

Websites

Can't read … Won’t buy

Fair enough, we could say

Would you ever buy a product you haven’t seen when you don’t understand the description? Or a product with a description that sounds comical in your own language?

A web site is a business card for everyone and a fundamental tool for letting the world know about your company and what you produce or create.

All translations intended for the web must be immediately comprehensible, use brilliant language and be easily accessible to the public, but must also convey technical content clearly and precisely.

Trust us with your message: your image and brand reputation are of the greatest importance to us.

Advertising - Marketing

Just what you mean

Our ‘words lab’ measures, calibrates and combines terms and words, providing a true meaning that has an impact on those who read it.

Many of the slogans and taglines that you see or hear in advertising have been translated by us for leading multinational companies operating in international markets.

A feather in our cap, which we want to share.

Software and Hardware Localization

We don’t transliterate, we localize

Falling into the trap of machine translations is easy and cheap … but can have very negative consequences.

We work in the opposite direction, with experience and product knowledge.

Localizing means understanding and making the reader understand.

“Gisting” is not what we do.

Patents

The soul of innovation is safe with us

We translate patents into all modern languages, for a wide variety of industries and product types. Designs, innovations, inventions and trademark management are translated promptly and with precision and expertise.

We translate from and into all European and Non-European languages

English, German, French, Spanish, Portuguese, Russian, Fin, Hungarian, Norwegian, Dutch, Czech, Slovakian, Polish, Rumenian, Greek, Turkish, Chinese, Japanese, Croatian, Hebrew, Indonesian, Lithuanian, Latvian, Macedonian, Serbian, Catalan, Ukrainian…
