(製品)ご紹介・ハイライト


Explanation:
You could use number of different terms, but either 「ご紹介」 or 「ハイライト」 would be OK, I would think.

Not wordy, simple, and gets the point across.

agree  KathyT: 表示する is OK, but I like your 紹介 option better. Unfortunately, the Asker appears to have no knowledge of Japanese, so I'm not sure how/why they came to such a snap decision.
