Language services as diverse as the Ruhr region itself
Essen combines tradition and modernity like no other city: former coal mines and industrial plants now stand side by side with cultural institutions such as the Museum Folkwang and innovative corporate headquarters. This dynamic also shapes the need for multilingual communication – and this is precisely where our Essen office comes in.
Our team combines local proximity with international expertise: native-speaker specialist translators, modern technologies and certified quality management (DIN EN ISO 9001:2015 & ISO 17100:2015) give you the highest level of assurance for demanding language projects.
We support companies throughout the Ruhr region – from Essen to Duisburg and Bochum to Dortmund – with the translation of technical documentation, legal texts, marketing materials, website content, software strings, catalogues and many other formats.
