Italian term or phrase: caratterizzato da grande resistenza tecnica
The head of Lucifero's is talking about My bond system is manufactured using dibond®, which is created by combining aluminium with technopolymer.

"Il prodotto è caratterizzato da grande resistenza tecnica, presentando pesi ridotti anche in grandi dimensioni. Grazie alle sue caratteristiche tecniche offre la possibilità di personalizzare il corpo lampada utilizzando varie sorgenti luminose anche in combinazione tra loro. E' possibile realizzare oggetti di complemento abbinandoli al corpo lampada e consente l'inserimento di accessori audio o rilevatori. La grande duttilità del materiale abbinato alla sorgente LED garantisce la massima espressione della creatività nel suo utilizzo"

Thanks :)

English translation:(in this context) high strength to weight ratio
Explanation:
..because the phrase afterwards.."presentando pesi ridotti anche in grandi dimensioni " indicates it has a low density.

Other than that, I think 'resistance' here implies 'strength'
