Catering Equipment Catalogue
"Hochrationelle Produktionsmethoden und der Einsatz bester Materialien gewährleisten leistungsfähige Produkte in zukunftsweisender Verarbeitungsqualität."
From a catalogue for catering equipment and what-have-you. I'm having a lot of trouble rendering "in zukunftsweisender Verarbeitungsqualität" into something that sounds like natural rather than translated English. TIA for helping me find a nice snappy and natural-sounding solution.

Comment: "Thanks Harry. This type of rephrasing is the ideal solution. I knew a literal translation wouldn't work, but just couldn't think of a good way to rephrase it so that it sounded natural while still conveying the basic meaning of the German. Your suggestion does the job nicely. Thanks again - appreciate your help. Thanks also to the peer graders and the others who offered an idea."

Comment: "This was the first thing I thought of, but it simply doesn't sound natural in English. Thank you anyway for your contribution - I appreciate your efforts. But at the end of the day, a rephrasing along the lines of what Harry suggested is what's needed here."

Comment: "I thought of a phrase like that as well, but it simply doesn't sound natural in English. Thank you anyway for your contribution. But at the end of the day, a rephrasing along the lines of what Harry suggested is what's needed here. Literal translations sound stilted."

I think 'groundbreaking' nicely conveys the meaning of 'zukunftsweisend'
