Bendstone
A trilingual (TR/EN/RU) corporate site for a flexible stone veneer manufacturer, with two-layer bot protection.

Starting point
For a flexible stone veneer and cultural brick manufacturer, we needed a trilingual corporate site that brought product categories, an application portfolio, a blog and contact flows together in one performance-focused build.

Approach
We set up locale-prefixed routing between TR/EN/RU with next-intl, with per-page SEO metadata and automatic language detection. The visitor's language preference is persisted through a cookie.
Build
We built two independent lines of bot defense: a user-agent check at the Netlify Edge Function level before the request even reaches Next.js, then a second middleware layer before locale redirection — so bot traffic never enters the render/redirect chain at all.

Outcome
The result is a site that combines multilingual SEO, easy content updates and resilience against bot traffic in one lightweight Next.js architecture, filtering unwanted traffic at the earliest point without adding server cost.
