A fire broke out at a printing house in Al Jurf's Industrial area in Ajman on Tuesday.
Civil Defence were notified of the blaze at 12.12pm after plumes of black smoke wafted towards residential neighbourhoods, said Brig Gen Mohammed Jumeirah, director of civil defence in Ajman.
Firefighters arrived at the scene within four minutes and extinguished the blaze by 12.47pm. No casualties were reported from what Brig Gen Jumeirah described as a "medium and not developed" fire.
The printing house was cooled for an hour before Ajman Police took control of the site to investigate the cause of the fire.

Real estate tokenisation project
Dubai launched the pilot phase of its real estate tokenisation project last month.
The initiative focuses on converting real estate assets into digital tokens recorded on blockchain technology and helps in streamlining the process of buying, selling and investing, the Dubai Land Department said.
Dubai’s real estate tokenisation market is projected to reach Dh60 billion ($16.33 billion) by 2033, representing 7 per cent of the emirate’s total property transactions, according to the DLD.

Libya's Gold
UN Panel of Experts found regime secretly sold a fifth of the country's gold reserves.
The panel’s 2017 report followed a trail to West Africa where large sums of cash and gold were hidden by Abdullah Al Senussi, Qaddafi’s former intelligence chief, in 2011.
Cases filled with cash that was said to amount to $560m in 100 dollar notes, that was kept by a group of Libyans in Ouagadougou, Burkina Faso.
A second stash was said to have been held in Accra, Ghana, inside boxes at the local offices of an international human rights organisation based in France.
