Cama Group is an international leader in the design and production of high-tech secondary packaging lines for major multinational companies in the food and non-food sectors.

Cama’s extensive knowledge of the sector, combined with its range of packaging machinery (Packaging Division) and robotic loading units (Robotic Division), place us at the forefront in the international production of complete packaging lines.
Our contact with the Yellow Hub project managers is constant, as is the flow of information for clarifications, modifications, and updates on delivery times. We trust Yellow Hub because our partnership has proven to be effective over many years.
Machinery €90 million turnover
1 million words translated every year 47 language combinations
The Cama Group-Yellow Hub relationship began more than 10 years ago. Cama was looking for a long-term language services partner that could keep up with its ambitions for rapid global expansion. Like Yellow Hub, Cama is also a family-run company built on hard work and innovation. Its commitment and family affection are perceived in the phrase that hangs in their central office:
In memory of our father, Paolo Bellante, who drew on his passion, tenacity, and cleverness to give us the opportunity to continue this ‘challenge’ called Cama Group with pride and untiring commitment. Yours always, Annalisa and Daniele.
Throughout the years, we have worked on various projects and translated millions of words, helping Cama Group expand internationally to the United Kingdom and Germany, while initiating new commercial operations in the United States, China, and Australia.
Every year, we translate about 1 million words for Cama Group in 47 language combinations
Most of the content we translate for Cama (instruction manuals) is technical. The machinery marketed by the company must be installed, used, and maintained over the years, and it is crucial that customers can rely on the available documentation.
To produce content that is easy to read, the text in the manuals must be simple, concise, and clear, following the standards of the different countries. However, this is often easier said than done when the text is rich in technical terms and writing conventions. To provide high-quality translations, we therefore follow a procedure that relies on:
Coordinating a workflow with more than 47 language combinations requires an experienced project management team and a network of freelance professionals. Our project managers make sure that the translation memories and terminology databases are up to date and examine the translation quality using automatic and linguistic quality assurance.
Manuals produced by Cama are created as InDesign files, which may often introduce complications. After translation, the text in the target language usually contracts or expands (the words and grammatical structure change from language to language), altering the document layout and requiring services.
Cama stakeholders have high expectations, given that potential translation errors may lead to costly errors for customers and leave Cama exposed to disputes and other legal risks.
