Fire crews have worked through the night tackling a blaze at a bed manufacturer.
At its height about 50 firefighters and eight fire engines were at the scene in Bretton Park Way in Dewsbury, West Yorkshire.
The blaze broke out at about 19:00 BST on Monday and large plumes of smoke and flames could be seen for miles around.
West Yorkshire Fire & Rescue said, external crew members remained at the scene damping down. No injuries have been reported.
West Yorkshire Fire and Rescue Service said an investigation was under way to establish the cause.

He urged people driving in the area to keep their windows closed as a small plume of smoke remained.
