The first full-face mask was used during the First World War, primarily for soldiers suffering from gas attacks. These masks evolved from earlier designs, but the introduction of the British "Small Box Respirator" in 1916 is often cited as a significant advancement in protective mask technology. Full masks became more refined in the following decades, particularly during World War II, to enhance protection and comfort.
