How Briloner Cut Manual Creation Time by 70% and Gained Full Control with Pergamon

Briloner Leuchten GmbH is a leading German lighting manufacturer with around 260 employees. Known for innovative lamps and smart lighting solutions, Briloner distributes its products across Europe through major retailers and marketplaces such as Amazon UK and OTTO, serving both consumer and retail customers.

As Briloner expanded its product portfolio, documentation demands grew more complex. Manuals were created in Word and Excel, making updates slow and inconsistent. Product details had to be manually entered, layouts lacked standardization, and legal or safety changes required editing dozens of files individually. Onboarding new contributors was equally time-intensive, limiting Briloner’s ability to keep pace with the speed and quality expectations of platforms like Amazon and OTTO.

To address these challenges, Briloner implemented Pergamon as a centralized documentation platform. The goal was to reduce manual work, improve oversight, and ensure manuals could meet the demands of fast-moving marketplaces like Amazon and OTTO. Pergamon allowed Briloner’s product teams to stay in control of content quality while automating time-consuming steps and simplifying collaboration across departments.

• AI-powered questionnaire to generate first-draft manuals
• Centralized dashboard for visibility and version control
• Automated translations into key EU languages
• One-click exports in PDF, InDesign, or XML

Since onboarding Pergamon, Briloner has shifted to a streamlined documentation process: what once took days now takes minutes. Updates apply centrally and content stays consistent. Manuals are now multilingual and formatted without outside design or translation costs.
