(dry) stabilate process
Explanation:
As Alan pointed out above the German term Trockenstabilat is a registered trademark and should be quoted as such but I would advise giving the English translation in brackets when you first use the German word. Please see the reference below; you can find several more by searching in Google and asking (in the extended search window) for responses in English.

Trockenstabilat method/procedure


Explanation:
"Trockenstabilat" is a registered trade name in Germany (I know, I've translated for the company that manufacturs it!). This means that it remains unchanged unless your client tells you to.
