(Sapulpa-AP) -- A Sapulpa glass company that caught on fire last night is scheduled to reopen Thursday.

The Bartlett-Collins Glass Company stopped production for three shifts at the Sapulpa plant yesterday.

The company has been a mainstay in the center of Sapulpa since 1913. It employs 600 people, who create glass tableware.

More than 100 workers were evacuated after the fire last night.

Officials say the blaze started because a leak allowed molten glass to flood over a retaining wall.

The temperature of the glass is 2,055 degrees Fahrenheit.

No one was injured.
