A fire on Friday afternoon caused around a half million dollars in damages to Plastics Engineering Company on North Avenue in Sheboygan.
The call came in shortly after 2PM reporting the fire on the roof and possible explosions. The Sheboygan Fire Department requested assistance from the Town of Sheboygan, Kohler, and Town of Wilson Departments and crews discovered fire and smoke on the roof near the northeast corner of the building. It originated in a dust collector and small roof fires resulted from embers blown from the collector.
The small fires on the roof were quickly extinguished, and the main fire was put out in about a half hour.
1 Plenco employee required treatment on site for smoke inhalation, but did not need hospitalization.
