Fire causes minor damage at NyloBoard
Placeholder Image
A small flash fire caused minor injuries to two employees, damaged a piece of equipment and shut down part of local industry NyloBoard’s manufacturing plant Thursday morning, but overall fire and company officials said the damage was minimal. Covington Fire Marshal Tony Smith said he is meeting with company officials tomorrow to approve a fix to a piece of equipment to prevent future fires. A portion of the plant, which is located at the intersection of Alcovy Road and Ga. Highway 142, will remain closed until the proposed solution is approved by Smith.
