eThekwini Fire's Bheki Hadebe says it took an hour for crews at the Phoenix factory to douse the flames.
He says no one was hurt.
"They said it was powder cotton. That's where the fire started when they were working in that area. We did not get the full information as to exactly how it started, but we managed to deal with it and put it out."
