An industrial unit in Nuneaton has been evacuated following a fire in one of its ovens.

Firefighters were called to Intrepid Manufacturing on the Whittacre Industrial Estate just before 14:30 GMT.

Crews said they arrived to find the fire had been contained to the oven and worked to ensure everyone inside the building had been evacuated.

No injuries have been reported.

The firm produces metal access panels and doors for the construction industry and the fire is believed to have been started by a paint box inside the industrial oven.

Once the fire itself was put out, the building was cleared of smoke, crews from Nuneaton said.
