CRESTEC | Translation & Localization

CRESTEC Thailand translates technical and commercial content for manufacturers — manuals, packaging, labels, software interfaces, websites, and marketing material. Translation is done by native speakers with subject-matter experience, and because our DTP and printing teams sit in the same building, the translated text is laid out and checked before it ever reaches print.

Localization

We at Crestec believe that you cannot go “global” without going “local” when it comes to expanding the market reach. Our localization service is one step further than just translation; meaning, we have our in-house team and a vetted network of native partner translators standing by along with a friendly and enthusiastic management team to help you through the process. We support localization for a wide range of industries, including automotive and manufacturing, gaming, e-learning and education, e-commerce, healthcare, and AI/technology companies. Every translation will be done by native translators utilizing a CAT (Computer-assisted translation) tool. As a trading company with strong local sourcing networks, Crestec (Thailand) also connects AI and technology companies with vetted Thai-language data annotation and AI training-data resources. Moreover, we are able to handle more than a hundred target languages with the support of our global network; especially in Southeast Asia, which the base of the production nowadays. Our high data security will ensure that your creative work will be safely maintained.

Benefits of TM (Translation Memory)

With extensive experience in the documentation field, Crestec can develop supporting tools, such as formatters (document generation): a tool used for creating documents without human intervention.
Formatters not only reduce the time to create a new document, but also improve the quality of the document by eliminating human errors, which comes with hands-on editing.

Crestec not only provides supporting tools for document creation, but also an Integrated Management System (IMS) which can combine all the processes of document creation in one complete framework.
We are currently utilizing this IMS system in the automotive-related field, and it is resulting in streamlined management; saving time and increasing efficiency. We aim to expand our areas of expertise into other categories as well.

Frequently asked questions

Which languages do you cover?

Thai, Japanese, English, and Arabic, together with the ASEAN languages — Vietnamese, Indonesian (Bahasa Indonesia), Malay, Burmese, Khmer, Lao, and Tagalog.

Do you use machine translation?

Yes, where the content and the client are suited to it. Machine translation is always followed by full human post-editing by a native-speaking linguist — we do not deliver raw machine output. For content where accuracy or tone is critical, we translate from scratch.
