Japanese term or phrase: 植物活性瞬間遮断製法
Apparently, this is a manufacturing process that temporarily impedes enzyme activiation within a plant.

Here's a description in Japanese:

原料の果物や野菜に不必要に熱をかけすぎないように植物酵素を瞬時に失活させるための、植物活性瞬間遮断製法など、工程中に加えられる加熱時間を少なくして、製品中に残る加熱履歴を極力少なくしている。

Anyone know an official English term for this?

manufacturing by instant cutoff of plant vitality


Explanation:
Bearing also in mind the Japanese description of the term, it is not a "temporary" block or cutoff, but, as the term itself says it, an instant block or cutoff of plants vitality. This kind of instantaneous cutoff is used to annihilate bacteria in vegetables or fruit without exposing them to prolonged heat.

Reference information:
I don't think there is a set term. As you probably noticed, there are pretty much no Google hits for this specific process, and there is one for the process cinefil-san mentioned. In other words, this is just a name that the company made up for their enzyme inactivation process, which is probably just blanching. But hey, blanching doesn't sound too fancy. I'd probably ask to see whether they wanted you to make up your own fancy sounding name for blanching. Otherwise, if you have enough context to accurately describe the process without guessing, then I would go that route.

By the way, it's not temporarily. It's a quick heating process that inactivates the enzymes without actually cooking the food. Also, if you decide to make up your own term, I would avoid talking about bioactivity even though it says 植物活性 because bioactivity is a good thing as well (bioactive vitamins, etc.) and this process doesn't destroy all of that, it just inactivates the enzymes.

熊本県の食品加工会社「タニショウ食品開発研究所」とJA宇城が協力して開発した「野菜ミルク」の受注が好調だという。本格出荷を前に生活協同組合などから注文が相次いでいるようだ。牛乳と野菜を混合した飲料は商品化が困難とされていただけ関係者の期待は高い。野菜ミルクは同研究所が独自開発した「植物生理活性瞬間遮断製法」を採用。
