Vineland, NJ – Sprinkler system contains building fire started by sparks from a grinder

September 7, 2016 viking210

Just after 12:15 p.m. Wednesday, a 911 call summoned firefighters to Rudco Products Inc. for a reported building fire.

Firefighters arrived to find smoke seeping from the plant, located at Oak Road and the Boulevard, and the employees evacuated.

It appears sparks from a grinder ignited air filters on a nearby storage rack, according to fire reports.

The building’s sprinkler system properly activated and contained the fire, which was deemed under control at 12:26 p.m.

No injuries were reported. Fire stations 3, 4, and 6 responded to the call.
