A FIRE EARLY FRIDAY MORNING DESTROYED a family-owned furniture factory in the Rochelle region of France.  The AG Products Corporation employs 24 workers who make specialty furniture that includes a large amount of plexiglas.

The blaze was heavily fueled by the plastics stored there along with the venting of compressed gas cylinders that prevented the initial response units from entering the building.

The fire was exinguished by 65 firefighters with the help of master streams and there were no reported injuries.
