The Sturgis Fire Department responded to a commercial structure fire late Tuesday at the north end of town.
The incident occurred at Cobalt Holdings in the 1000 block of North Centreville Road.
First-responding crews reported smoke from the north end of the building and determined that a piece of machinery was on fire. Upon entering the building, firefighters observed heavy black smoke coming from the granulator.
As crews approached the machine they located the source of the fire, which appeared to be a nylon/rubber “fluff” that had ignited below the machine. The fire was extinguished and overhaul was completed.
Crews remained on the scene to mitigate fire extension for approximately three hours.
No injuries were reported and the building was fully evacuated upon the fire departments arrival.
The cause of the fire is undetermined and is currently under investigation.
