How is PRTI Inc building a scalable business around waste tire deconstruction, recovered materials, and targeted stakeholder communication?
In Episode 34 of The HEX-Files Energy Marketing Podcast, Host Arnaud Dasprez speaks with Chris Hare, Chief Executive Officer at PRTI Inc, The nTete Group & Independent Agent at Nonvoice Agency, about how he is addressing the underserved problem of waste tires through a protected, patented process designed to deconstruct tires and recover valuable materials. Chris explains why the company focuses on economic efficiency as much as recycling value, how it works with existing tire logistics networks, and why structured financing, permitting, stakeholder education, and investor communication are central to scaling a technical B2B business.
Chris Hare shares perspective from a career spanning large companies, young companies, consulting, innovation strategy, intellectual property, and scaling small teams. The conversation covers practical lessons for industrial growth, including how to communicate with investors, qualify partners, build credibility when proprietary information cannot be fully public, and prepare a company’s functions to grow alongside new facilities.
