Here is their FB Post update
“At about 6.20 am this morning, SCDF responded to a fire at No. 2B Tuas Ave 12. Upon SCDF’s arrival, the fire was seen raging from the second floor of a two-storey warehouse.
SCDF immediately deployed its resources to surround and contain the fire. Firefighters faced intense heat from the fire, which had caused the walls of the premises to break off.
The fire involved the contents of the warehouse which largely comprised machineries and bales of plastic resins.
A total of 16 emergency vehicles and about 70 firefighters were deployed. At the height of the operations, 8 handheld jets were used to mitigate the fire.
The fire was extinguished at about 7.50am. Damping down* operations are currently ongoing.
There were no reported injuries. The cause of fire is under investigation.
*Damping down refers to the application of water to wet burnt surfaces immediately after a fire is put out. It is to prevent any potential rekindle of fire from the hot burnt surfaces.”
