Emergency crews raced to the scene on Wednesday (24 Sept) at around 7.30pm at the Groundwell Trading Estate, in Swindon.
Emergency vehicles blocked the road off and authorities instructed neighbours to stay inside and keep their windows shut.
“It was dark and I could see the bright orange glow,” Kieran, 27, of Swindon, Wilts, told Need to Know.
“Several emergency services had blocked the road off and it was the first time I’d seen the area that busy.
“All the neighbours were out recording on their phones.
“That didn’t last long because authorities told everyone to go home and close their doors and windows.”
The industrial estate was evacuated after the explosion which reportedly occurred inside one of the units on site.
A large cordon has been put in place around the area while emergency crews work to tackle the inferno.
Emergency services confirmed that nobody was hurt in the incident.
