About
Global manufacturing automation leader modernizing its digital experience

DESTACO is a global leader in automation, workholding, and containment solutions for manufacturing, providing products and custom engineering solutions worldwide. The company operates a large global website and is actively modernizing its digital presence as part of a broader digital transformation.

The Challenge
Scaling beyond 3 languages without creating an engineering bottleneck

As Destaco’s website audience became more linguistically diverse, the marketing team needed to expand beyond English, French, and German without creating a major engineering backlog. Traditional automated translation services often struggled with Destaco’s highly technical product verbiage, producing output that required as much correction as manual translation and negating the benefit of automation. With nearly 40,000 URLs indexed by search engines, the team also needed a way to handle large volumes of duplicate and boilerplate content efficiently so marketing could scale locales without doubling reviewer work.

The Solution
Dynamic Phrase Manager + automation built for technical content at scale

Following a successful trial in early 2025, Destaco selected Localize for its combination of translation accuracy, intuitive dashboard, and automation. Onboarding moved through spring/summer 2025 with Customer Success guiding the rollout and providing documentation and remote support. Localize’s Dynamic Phrase Manager and variable definitions were particularly valuable for Destaco’s site: they let the team manage repeated boilerplate and product descriptions across tens of thousands of pages instead of editing each instance manually, saving time and reducing review cycles.

The Outcome
Faster multilingual growth across ~40,000 indexed URLs — without doubling review work

Localize helped Destaco expand its global reach while keeping marketing and engineering lean. Key outcomes the customer reported include: reliable, accurate translations for technical verbiage (notably strong results for Chinese where other providers struggled); faster workflows thanks to Dynamic Phrase Manager and variable reuse across ~40,000 indexed URLs; and a favorable price-to-value fit for long-term budgeting. The Localize team’s hands-on onboarding and ongoing support meant Destaco could launch new locales smoothly without heavy developer involvement. French stakeholders also gave very positive feedback on translation quality, reinforcing Localize’s value for both marketing and regional teams.

“Localize blended translation accuracy with an intuitive dashboard that made accessing analytics and making corrections intuitive and fast.”

Frequently Asked Questions

How did Localize help Code.org reduce localization cycle time?

Localize helped Code.org combine AI translation, targeted human review, in-context editing, glossary support, and real-time publishing in one localization workflow. 

How does Localize keep translations accurate for content students and teachers rely on?

Every translation can go through human review before it is published. Reviewers see it in context on the actual page, so they catch a mistranslated coding term as easily as an off-tone sentence. A shared glossary keeps words like "loop" and "function" consistent across all 29 languages Code.org supports.

What results did Code.org achieve with Localize?

Code.org reduced localization cycle times by 50%+, eliminated publishing delays, and improved cross-language consistency across thousands of lessons.

How does Localize support ongoing localization maintenance?

Localize helps teams detect, translate, review, and publish multilingual updates continuously, so that translated content stays current as source content changes.

Is human review still part of the workflow?

Yes. Code.org uses AI translation for speed and human review where quality, terminology, tone, and cultural relevance matter most.
