Decades of experience in science & technology translations

When you work with CPLS, you don't have to queue up. If you send us an English to Dutch or Dutch to English translation at short notice, we can shift assignments to make them fit your deadline - something we call quantum translation. It's the simple mathematics of 24 x 7 and translators whose knowledge and familiarity provide the quality you're looking for.

Why choose us?

  • CPLS has been working in the field of science and technology for over 25 years. We've therefore been dealing with developments such as machine learning and personalised healthcare for as long as they've existed. As technical domains evolve, so do we.
  • We're more than just a translation bureau. When it comes to technical texts, our team of native English and Dutch speakers are also available for professional copywriting, editing and conference reporting.
  • We're inquisitive and we love what we do! This passion shows in the quality of our technical translations.

Speed without compromise

When you contact us by phone, app or email, we aim to respond within a matter of minutes and can generally hit your deadline: what you think is mission improbable, we make mission probable. Our translation rates are set at a flat fee of 15 cents per word, ensuring clear and consistent pricing for all projects. For example, a 12,000-word translation will cost €1,800 (12,000 x 15 c). This straightforward approach ensures that you always know the cost upfront, with no hidden adjustments. 

For many English technical translations, a turnaround of 1000 words per hour is completely feasible. Original documents are sometimes edited after a quotation has been agreed upon and often need to be updated as technology evolves, so revisions are always possible.

Science & technology translations that cut across fields

CPLS works with a number of clients from across the Netherlands, including major players such as TNO and TU/e and European technology platforms like ECSEL. Our work includes projects as diverse as translating physics courses and guidelines for logistical planning process software as well as editing valedictory speeches. For all of our clients, we make it our business to keep track of preferences in style and terminology, creating consistent Dutch to English and English to Dutch technical translations every time.
