A laminating machine caused a fire at an Elkhart business early Wednesday morning, according to the Elkhart Fire Department.
Firefighters responded to a fire at Interior Components Plus in the 2300 block of W. Mishawaka Road on Wednesday morning around 4 a.m.
At the scene, firefighters reported seeing heavy smoke in the area and throughout the building.
Workers on site told firefighters that a glue laminating machine had caught fire and set off a sprinkler.
Attempts made by workers to extinguish the fire were unsuccessful.
After putting out the fire, officials found that the fire was caused by a malfunction in the laminating machine which overheated oil, causing it to ignite, the fire department said.
The company was able to continue normal operations on Wednesday.
