Case Study: Portakabin streamlines digital asset management with Canto

Canto offers Portakabin greater control over digital assets

Portakabin, a UK-based leader in modular buildings, needed a better way to centralize, organize, and distribute digital assets across its creative studio and wider teams. Their existing DAM platform lacked the workflow capabilities they needed, creating bottlenecks, file duplication risks, and a disjointed user experience. They turned to Canto and its DAM product to improve asset management and collaboration.

With Canto in place, Portakabin created a centralized library for approved assets, improved search through metadata, OCR, and smart tagging, and enabled secure sharing with internal teams and external partners. Canto also helped the company manage brand integrity more consistently and embed video cleanly into web content. The result was a streamlined content creation process, easier brand management, and better hybrid collaboration, though the case study does not provide numeric impact metrics.
