More than 50 firefighters tackled a blaze at a plastics factory in Banbury last night.
Shortly after 10pm crews were alerted to the fire at AAC Cyroma Ltd, on the Beaumont Road industrial estate.
Plumes of smoke were billowing from the factory when firefighters from Banbury, Hook Norton, Woodstock, Kidlington, Bicester, Eynsham, Deddington and Oxford arrived.
About 15 staff were evacuated from the premises, which supplies moulded plastics.
The fire was brought under control within about two hours but crews stayed at the factory through the night.
A spokesman for Oxfordshire Fire Service said the blaze is thought to have been started accidentally.
