People enjoy makeovers, not only concerning their appearance, clothing and accessories but also in the spaces where they spend most of their time, such as kitchens or bathrooms in their homes. Any renovation of these areas in our homes requires considerable work and effective communication between designers, material suppliers and end clients. The goal is always to achieve complete customer satisfaction and fulfil the design specifications.
Curious about the role of translation in all of this?
Designing and constructing dream bathrooms and kitchens involves collaboration with suppliers and contractors offering high-quality materials and services. The manufacturing of these materials, products or the sourcing of raw materials often takes place from foreign countries. Hence, professional translation services are frequently required to ensure seamless and clear communication between the involved parties.
The role of a translator extends beyond facilitating communication, including interpreting in business meetings or translating initial email contacts. Translators also play a vital role in translating market studies, signing contracts or legal agreements with suppliers to ensure adherence to contractual obligations and prevent any potential legal or financial issues.
For the latter, it’s customary to enlist a sworn translator with the legal authority to authenticate the translation. Through their signature and seal, they affirm that the translation faithfully represents the content of the original document.
What other reasons call for the expertise of a translator specialised in the kitchen and bathroom sector?
The translations in highest demand within this industry definitely involve marketingand sales materials as they are often produced in multiple languages to reach a diverse audience in foreign markets where operations or points of sale are established. And we all know that speaking your customers’ language gives you a considerable edge!
Our agency translates catalogues, press releases, blog posts and social media content, as well as websites practically on a daily basis. We have been collaborating for many years with internationally renowned clients in the fields of taps, bathrooms and sanitary products, ranging from furniture, ceramics and architectural studios to any other player involved in this highly innovative industry.
In various instances, a specialised translator is also essential for tasks such as hiring human resources or securing representation services in foreign countries. This includes the translation of blueprints, design specifications and general technical documents.
Do interpreters also play a crucial role in this industry?
Certainly! Consider all the international fairs and events associated with the bathroom and kitchen sector (Cevisama, Cersaie, ISH, Casa Decor, Construmat, etc.), along with product launches in foreign countries. Being able to reach the target audience in their language and skilfully convey the brand message is a key factor and your gateway to a broader customer base eager to explore and integrate your products into their designs or homes.
Effectively navigating all these aspects requires in-depth expertise and a thorough comprehension of technical terminology in both the source and target languages. This is essential for accurately portraying the intricacies of each design and meeting the expectations and needs of interior design studios, architects or individual clients.
We have provided numerous interpreting services, both consecutive and simultaneous, in languages such as French, English, German, Italian, Russian, Chinese, Japanese and many others. These services have been rendered at industry events, training sessions, factory visits, corporate events, audits in other countries to acquire export licenses, among other instances.
Furthermore, we can take care of everything surrounding your event: equipment rental, audiovisual technicians, interpreters and more, to ensure its successful execution.
