The fire was reported at 9.25am local time after explosions were reported at the premises on Rowe Street.
Department of Fire and Emergency Services district officer Matt Folini told The West Australian the injured employees were in a workshop area where the blast occurred.
'They were very close to the event,' he said.
The cause of the fire is under investigation, Mr Folini said.
'It appears something has gone awry that has led to the explosion,' he said, adding there are a 'myriad' of potential causes.
Witness Mick O'Hara saw thick smoke cover the sky as he drove into the vicinity.
'It was black, very thick and black (smoke) pouring out of the main window,' he said.
