31. Virgin Atlantic
To maintain Virgin’s high levels of customer service, the in-flight on-screen display options need to be available in a host
of languages to enable individual passengers to navigate through the entertainment system in their language of choice.
Service Provided
Bubbles provides Virgin Atlantic with a dedicated team of
native-speaking and degree-educated translators that, each
month, carry out local research to make sure the established
characters and wordings for movies and artists are always
adhered to.
Adding Value
The Bubbles Translation Memory tool is used to memorise
phrases so translations can be reapplied wherever the
phrase appears. This ensures continuity and consistency of
style and terminology in wording that is regularly updated,
altered or contains the same phrase – in turn delivering
enhanced efficiency at a reduced cost.

32. Weetabix
Weetabix exports its breakfast cereals to more than 80 countries around the world. In 2011 the company embarked on a
£7m global marketing campaign to transform the €100m a year Weetabix brand.
Service Provided
Bubbles was tasked with providing exacting translation services
to enable Weetabix to effectively communicate the new brand
positioning and messaging to partners and consumers in each
of the target export countries.
Adding Value
Weetabix’s overseas advertising messages are very different
from its UK positioning. This involved specialist teams of
translators to match marketing messages, legal t&c’s with
text length (for packaging) and the right balance of cultural
idioms and nuances to perfect the translation service.

33. Millward Brown

Bubbles have been partners to Millward Brown for over decade
working hand in hand with them across a wide range of market
research areas. Bubbles provide translations, proofreading and
QA analysis; and provide the translation of documents such as
questionnaires, survey responses and code-frames.
Adding Value
Meeting the needs of a client that works to some of the
most time critical deadlines in the world requires steadfast
efficiency, the ability to provide services at short notice,
meticulous project management and provisions twenty four
hours a day.

34. Brintons
Brintons has been producing the highest quality carpets since the 1700s. A British brand whose carpets are hailed among
the finest in the world, Brintons recently embarked on a major expansion programme.
Service Provided
Aimed at stimulating growth on a global scale, a new
marketing strategy involved revamping Brinton’s website. As
part of the three-month project, Bubbles Translation Services
was tasked with translating the site into four different European
languages.
Adding Value
Brintons was already using a third party to create the
content for its English website, part of the brief included
Bubbles liaising directly with the web designers.
By taking this approach, Bubbles’ translators were able to
produce content in a format that enabled the website to be
populated with minimal effort, a move that ultimately
resulted in minimising the final cost for Brintons.

35. Thermo Scientific

consumables, chemicals, pharmaceuticals and healthcare products.

Scientific to translate and typeset a number of complex
technical documents into more than 40 languages. The
documents included highly technical user/maintenance
manuals for medical diagnostic equipment, instructions and
software and datasheets for specialist pharmaceutical products.
Adding Value
The Bubbles translators involved with this project
understood the importance of phraseology and cultural
sensitivity in certain areas, which is why their work could be
relied upon to convey exactly the right message in the right
way. Bubbles was able to deliver the translations on time
and to a consistently high standard.

defence and energy markets.

technical detail. Meggitt needed to analyse the quality and
accuracy of the technical documentation produced by their
Chinese division.

have been significantly improved; today Meggitt have
complete confidence that the quality requirements of their
products and procedures are being adhered to, regardless
of the differences between their bases’ languages.

the world they provide medical solutions in crisis areas such war zones and areas affected by natural disasters.

critical first-response medical procedures in use in various
Middle-Eastern countries.

as accurate and efficient as possible, enabling them to
undertake and improve upon their life saving medical solutions.

torque tightening and measuring equipment.

Until Bubbles started working with Norbar in 2005, the
translation of their documentation was produced using various
resources including local distributors and smaller translation
companies leading to brand inconsistency and the passionate
and dedicated team being unhappy with their global
customer’s experience.
Adding Value
As well as improving the quality and consistency of
translations, Bubbles was able to introduce major cost
savings by utilising computer aided translation (CAT)
tools.This system “memorises” all translations so that if the
same sentence is ever needed to be translated again in any
future manual, Norbar do not need to pay in full for this
again.

their products are involved in varying areas of Healthcare, Consumer Lifestyle and Lighting.

international business tasks with in house bi-lingual staff.

Eastern language translations, where the speciality and diversity
of languages in singular regions can often have an enormous
amount of dialects.
Adding Value
We translate a wide scope of business documents, including
highly confidential corporate announcements (such as
quarterly results), strategic, business plans and senior
management activities.
We also translate customer facing documents, incorporating
many aspects of product literature (such as user guides,
packaging, and license agreements) as well as highly
technical patents.

pharmaceuticals, eye care products, generics, consumer health products, vaccines and diagnostic tools and animal health

themselves in a difficult situation when, at the last moment, the
chosen supplier advised that they would be unable to meet the
deadline due to the material’s complex and varied subject
matter.

With offices in China, Bubbles was able to swiftly set up a
dedicated team of professional, qualified and experienced
translators, all of whom had the relevant expertise to handle
the intricate subject matter.

the clock to complete the work in just four days.

printed on time
