>From Maurice: "It appears from a 2012 report that the site (and particular building) was sprinkler protected, however there were recommendations to improve the protection arrangement and the arrangement of the water supply". If I had to guess, I would say the stored commodity was other than originally designed for!!!

The building in the pictures appear very similar to meatworks, bakery and dairy buildings I visited the "day after", hence if the sprinklers are only based on NFPA basic manufacturing activity they may not be able to contain such a fire. Of course this is after all previous comments: that the sprinkler should be adequate for occupancy, should be properly fitted and professionally maintained and provided with adequate/reliable water supply.
