The Mazara del Vallo site was founded in 1981 as the Institute for the Technology of Fishing and Fishery Products, later (1998) renamed the Institute for Research on Marine Resources and the Environment (IRMA). In October 2001, with the establishment of the Institute for Coastal Marine Environment (IAMC), based in Naples, it merged into the new Institute, together with other institutes in southern Italy. The subsequent reorganization of the CNR marine research institutes in September 2018 placed it within CNR-IRBIM, of which it became a Secondary Office.
