The 47-year-old man, from the north of the county, was released on police bail on Wednesday night to return to a police station in Warwickshire on Thursday morning.
Ten men held earlier in the year in connection with the incident remain on police bail.
Eight were arrested on suspicion of gross negligence manslaughter and two on suspicion of misconduct in a public office.
The bodies of Ashley Stephens, 20, John Averis, 27, and Darren Yates-Badley, 24, were found in the charred remains of the factory in Atherstone-on-Stour.
Ian Reid, 44, died in hospital after the fire.
