No injuries were reported in a fire at a Unity business early Thursday morning.

The fire at Specialty Seal Group at 1001 Lloyd Ave., off of Route 981 and near Saint Vincent College, was reported around 4:40 a.m. and was quickly doused, according to Lloydsville Volunteer Fire Department Chief Brian Schultheis.

Westmoreland County dispatchers reported the fire was out just after 5 a.m.

Although an exact cause is still under investigation, Schultheis said it was not suspicious.

“We believe it was electrical. The company is investigating the cause,” he said.

A fire was confirmed on the second floor of the building.

A damage estimate was not available.

Specialty Seal deals in hermetic seals, machining and nickel plating. It designs and produces glass-to-metal and metal-to-metal seals.
