Video from Chopper 7 showed a large amount of smoke coming from the building as crews put water on the roof. The business is between Hayes and Groesbeck along 12 Mile.
The Macomb County Emergency Management said earlier there was a risk of chemical release and the fire department was requesting that people shelter in place for a 1/2 mile downwind to the southeast from the intersection and to remain indoors, close all windows and doors. The order has been lifted following air quality testing.
12 Mile Road remained closed for much of the day between Hayes and Grosbeck.
The building is RCO Engineering. According to the company's website, they are a B2B prototype and manufacturing company.
In a statement, RCO Engineering said there were no injuries and all employees are safe and accounted for and that the fire is contained.
They also said crews from Roseville, Eastpointe, Warren, St. Clair Shores, Clinton Township, Fraser and Mount Clemens responded.
"We want to reassure our partners and stakeholders that there is no impact to the rest of the RCO Engineering business operations or to our customers. RCO Engineering remains operational, and we are committed to maintaining the highest standards of safety and service," the statement reads.
