TheStructural Business Statistics: Industrial Sector is aimed at ascertain the structural and economic characteristics of the industrial sector companies, including extractive and manufacturing industries, and activities in the areas of electric power, gas, steam and air conditioning supply, water supply and sanitation services, waste management and decontamination.

This statistic, which is governed by Regulation 2019/2152 of the European Parliament and of the Council and its implementing act 2020/1197, provides information on the structural characteristics of industrial sector companies, such as size, economic data (income and expenditure), as well as the employment and investment structure.
