This is how I solved mine. Hope this helps!
public function export_items_to_excel(){
$items = $this->transaction->view_all_items();
$output = '';
$output .= "<table class='table' border='1'>
<thead>
<th style='background-color:#c7c7c7;'>NAME</th>
<th style='background-color:#c7c7c7;'>DESCRIPTION</th>
<th style='background-color:#c7c7c7;'>QUANTITY</th>
<th style='background-color:#c7c7c7;'>WEIGHT (KG)</th>
<th style='background-color:#c7c7c7;'>HS CODE</th>
<th style='background-color:#c7c7c7;'>SERIAL NO.</th>
<th style='background-color:#c7c7c7;'>UNIT VALUE</th>
<th style='background-color:#c7c7c7;'>CURRENCY</th>
<th style='width:220px !important;background-color:#c7c7c7;'>PICTURE</th>
</thead>
<tbody>
";
foreach($items as $item){
$output .= "
<tr>
<td style='text-align:center;'>".$item->item_name."</td>
<td style='text-align:center;'>".$item->item_description."</td>
<td style='text-align:center;'>".$item->item_quantity."</td>
<td style='text-align:center;'>".number_format($item->item_weight, 2)."</td>
<td style='text-align:center;'>".$item->item_hs_code."</td>
<td style='text-align:center;'>".$item->item_serial_number."</td>
<td style='text-align:center;'>".number_format($item->item_unit_value, 2)."</td>
<td style='text-align:center;'>".$item->item_currency."</td>
<td style='text-align:center;width:220px !important;height:220px !important;'><img src='".base_url()."assets/uploads/".$item->item_picture."' style='width:200px !important;height:152px !important;'> </td>
</tr>
";
}
$output .= "</tbody>
</table>
";
header("Content-Type: application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.spreadsheetml.sheet");
header("Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=items.xls");
header("Cache-Control: max-age=0");
echo $output;
}
