A spokesman for the firm said: “A fire was discovered in our plant room, which is a separate building to the main production area.
“Thankfully, the fire service responded promptly and managed to extinguish the fire quickly.
“No-one was injured, and investigations will now begin to establish the fire’s cause.
“Production will recommence tomorrow [Monday 24 August], but a percentage of products will need to be diverted to other locations.
“Supplies to customers should be unaffected.”
