CIPET was started as the Central Plastics Engineering and Tool Institution in Chennai in 1968.

Now undergraduate, postgraduate and PhD level courses are also being taught in these institutes. He said that the government has increased the number of CIPETs from 23 to 47 in the last 10 years to cater to the needs of the petrochemical industry.
