Quality and reliability of XXX shock absorbers is due to the use of advanced technologies, production practices with meterials and components of high quality, as well as implementation of major capital investment projects for new hi-tech engeneering solutions and tests.

Wouldn't it be better to say "is achieved by" instead of "is due to"?
Please check this sentence for any grammatical mistakes and let me know about them.

Thank you.

It is a translation from Russian. I have made some obvious mistakes ("is" instead of "are"). Sorry for that. I was inattantive.
Why?

Saying it's a translation from Russian isn't the same as giving us the source.

It is about the vehicles. That's all I know.
