Case Study: Construction leader PERI achieves a globalized digital presence (50+ sites, 30+ languages) with Magnolia CMS

How PERI built a globalized digital business strategy with Magnolia

PERI, a family-owned German manufacturer of formwork and scaffolding with 7,500+ employees and global projects, needed a reliable digital platform to manage more than 50 international sites in over 30 languages. A 2013 relaunch had failed due to CMS and infrastructure limitations: PERI required centralized content and asset reuse, localized language variants with access control, and a user-friendly editor experience for 50+ global authors.

Working with Magnolia and implementation partner Lemonize (with SysEleven hosting), PERI moved to a single, centralized infrastructure that enables instant cloning, central management of multilingual content and assets, and subsidiary-level localization. Lemonize built 14 task-focused apps and globalization extensions to simplify editing and language scoping; the result is faster site and microsite rollout, lower infrastructure and implementation costs, and a stronger, more scalable global digital presence.
