April 04, 2006

Shikoku Kakoki, a renowned manufacturer of food and beverage packaging machines based in Tokushima, Japan, recently decided to implement HyperSTE and to use Tedopres' services in the field of Simplified Technical English and language technology.

"We have been working with Shikoku Kakoki for a long time.", says Dr. Frans Wijma, Tedopres' Director of Language Technology, who manages operations in Asia. "Over the past years, we learned a lot regarding the needs and expectations of Asian customers. We see a great potential for Simplified Technical English and HyperSTE in this booming market, that relies heavily on exports."

Mr. Satoru Ishikawa, manager of Tedopres Japan, acknowledges this view. "In Japan, English remains a second language. At the same time it is used as the source for translations into many other languages. Simplified English is the ideal solution for Japanese companies exporting their products to the US, Europe and Asia, as it saves costs and improves translations."
