"The plant is operated by Australian Contract Blenders, which specialises in manufacturing and blending various chemicals, including hazardous materials. According to WorkSafe Victoria, which is investigating the incident alongside the local Environment Protection Authority (EPA), the victim was working with a flammable liquid when the incident occurred"
