Footage displays basic factory operations. All appear natural, as several pallets of wet brick pallets are loaded into kilns. Kilns are lit, and operations proceed as normal.
Ten minutes pass. A male factory worker can be seen looking inside one of the lit kins. He begins to point inside and attracts the attention of a suspected supervisor. The supervisor joins in looking. Several more male workers call over and point into their own kilns.
The supervisor begins to pace and waves his hand down to all workers. Orange gas begins leaking from the kilns, and several workers attempt to fan the gas. A male worker can be seen coming into contact with gas and begins to cough violently. The supervisor presses alarm and an explosion of orange gas erupt from all kilns.
Mass hysteria among factory staff begin. Brick-like growths can be seen growing on surfaces. Factory staff closest to eruption begin to suffer from SCP-XXXX skin growths. Male factory workers saw suffocating after growths cover nose and mouth. The majority of the remaining staff begin to flee. Kilns are still seen producing enormous quantities of SCP-XXXX.

Description: Security footage from camera marked OF-2. The display shows in
identified factory co-owner Simon Shabear at his desk. Sounds of mass hysteria and coughing can be heard from outside his office.
BEGIN LOG
Simon can be seen looking out his office window into the production house. He has placed several coats at the bottom of his door. Simon is seen to be frantic as he paces his office, and is startled by slamming at his door.
A panicked worker can be heard pleading to be let in. Simon backs away from the door and instead heads to a nearby file cabinet. Simon removes several documents from a locked drawer and throws them in a nearby office bin. Pleading has now ceased and is replaced with frantic coughing and wheezing.
Simon looks back at the door, before removing a matchbox from his desk. Simon lights a match and sets fire to the bin, before calling someone on his desk phone. The conversation is inaudible, but it is clear Simon is angry with whom he is speaking. The conversation continues for two minutes before Simon hangs up the phone, and moves to the door. Simon presses his ear to the door, before opening the door and leaving.
Mr. Shabear was not amongst the factory survivors.
END LOG
Statment from Field Agent MacBride: During the concealment operation, we traced Mr. Shabear's call to the factory owner, Mr. Paul Farmer. On our recovery operation to Mr. Farmer's home, we uncovered Mr. Farmer had deleted the message. And we believe shortly after took his own life via gunshot.
