Celsa steelworks explosion Eastmoors Road

One of our drivers has just rang and asked me if I have heard about an explosion at Celsa Steelworks Eastmoors Road in Cardiff and I said no. Just googled it and it’s correct, there’s 2 unaccounted for and 5 injured :frowning:
Has anyone on here been in there today and which part has the explosion taken place? Hopefully they’ll be no more unaccounted for as 2 missing is 2 to much anyway.

I heard on the Radio that there is 2 dead, if so R.I.P Sad news :frowning: :frowning: :frowning:

It happened in the Rod and bar mill. Could’ve been a whole lot worse.

We used to go in there regular as clockwork. Don’t hardly go now. Just goes to show how dangerous those sort of places can be.

Yes mate, it’s a shame and so close to Xmas too :frowning: :frowning:

I had a day off today but im in Celsa most weeks a couple of times, it was not at the scrap metal site on Seawall Road though so would not of been directly affected. Little scary though.

Yes, Celsa have indeed confirmed two dead and four others injured, my condolences to all involved and affected.
