Spanish term or phrase: Sector Industrial
This is for a catalogue: The "sector industrial" would be the target market, anyone who might need a certain part to produce something else using that part.

I think it would be translatable as "manufacturing industry/ sector", but I'd like a second or even a third opinion!

Cheers ^^
