History

A concise historical narrative of NAICS Code 423450-29 covering global milestones and recent developments within the United States.

  • The Respirators (Wholesale) industry has a long history dating back to the early 20th century when the first respirator was invented to protect workers from harmful gases and dust. During World War I, respirators were widely used to protect soldiers from poisonous gas attacks. In the 1930s, the first air-purifying respirator was developed, which used activated charcoal to filter out harmful particles. In the 1960s, the first powered air-purifying respirator was introduced, which used a battery-powered blower to filter air. In recent history, the industry has seen significant growth due to the COVID-19 pandemic, which has led to a surge in demand for respirators and other personal protective equipment (PPE). The industry has also seen advancements in technology, such as the development of smart respirators that can monitor the wearer's health and provide real-time data on air quality.
