Fire in South St. Paul

A plant in South St. Paul went up in flames after an explosion on the west side of the building this afternoon. The company produces plastic and epoxy products, including moldings and casting resins.

Epoxical Inc./Composite Polymer Design is just off Bidge Point Drive.


This place also has Hydrogen cyanide in it.

 

I can see the smoke from my office window in Bloomington. It looks pretty acrid.

Stuart.

 

yup, can see it from my office also.

but that was around 2pm.

 

Whats the name of the company? Epoxical Inc?

A friend of my families owns midwest plastics, and I believe that is in St. Paul as well.

 

I just drove by, it smells nasty and they have all the exits in that area blocked off...

 

I was at the Holiday gas station on 70th street and I could still smell it.

 

^west st. paul, off of oakdale.

 

I'm soooo glad I'm down wind. I love the smell of toxins in the air. Good for my lungs. I swear I need to move out of CG.

 

First report i heard was that it was the stockyards That may have smelled a bit better mmmmm......meat:yumyum:

 

The news did mention that it is dangerous enough to hurt you if you were to breathe in the fumes directly. I mean a big whiff of it.
