On Saturday, October 21, 2024, at approximately 4:30 a.m., firefighters responded to a significant fire at Gressingham Foods located on Hinderclay Road, Redgrave. A security guard raised the alarm after spotting smoke in the food packaging area. Six fire engines attended the scene, and fortunately, there were no reported injuries. The blaze, now extinguished, is expected to have caused approximately $500,000 in damages. Preliminary investigations suggest that the fire may have been triggered by an electrical fault. A comprehensive fire investigation is set to take place later today.

On Saturday, October 21, 2024, at approximately 4:30 a.m., a significant fire broke out at Gressingham Foods, located on Hinderclay Road in Redgrave.
The alarm was raised by a vigilant security guard who noticed smoke coming from the food packaging area. This prompt action enabled emergency services to respond swiftly.
A total of six fire engines were dispatched to the scene, with crews arriving from Ixworth, Diss, Bury St Edmunds, and Haverhill, as well as support from the Norfolk Fire and Rescue Service.
Firefighters employed breathing apparatus and hose reel jets to effectively combat the blaze, which primarily affected the wall paneling and roof space of the facility.
Fortunately, there were no reported injuries. However, the estimated damage from this incident is projected to be around $500,000. As firefighters worked to extinguish the flames and dampen the area, local residents were advised to remain cautious due to ongoing operations.
Preliminary investigations indicate that the fire may have been caused by an electrical fault, although the exact cause remains under investigation. This incident underscores the critical importance of having effective fire detection and monitoring systems in place.
Technologies such as thermal imaging can identify heat anomalies in electrical systems before they escalate into serious fires, ultimately protecting lives and property.

Scalable Solutions for Early Fire Detection
For early fire detection, Planck Vision TNC thermal imaging cameras are far superior to traditional systems that can alert to fire only after the visible consequences of smoke and flame are present. TNC cameras can help to prevent the destruction of goods and loss of life by surveilling for abnormal heat conditions before fires erupt.
