German term

bodenständig-partnerschaftlich

German to English Marketing Advertising / Public Relations
Marketing of car safety devices

Der technische Anspruch, der nicht nur *bodenständig-partnerschaftlich* sondern auch hochmodern ist...

something like 'which besides the *traditional trustworthiness between partners*... sounds a bit stilted. The general tone is kind of chatty, nothing high-brow. 4 points beckoning

Could we have a bit more context? The full sentence would help - it's not clear what the technische Anspruch refers to.

2 KudoZ points awarded for this answer. Comment: "I used 'rooted in a long tradition of partnering', though not ideal either, but 'down-to-earth' really means 'folksy' or 'unpretentious', which is off base here. Thanks, anyway"
