Heritage Environmental Services appoints chief commercial officer

Heritage Environmental Services (HES), an Indianapolis-based EQT Infrastructure portfolio company, has appointed Chris Ebeling to the role of chief commercial officer (CCO), effective Feb. 3, 2025.

“We are genuinely excited to welcome Chris to the Heritage team, and [I] am confident that his experience and leadership will not only strengthen our market position but also inspire new opportunities, propelling us to even greater success in the years ahead,” HES CEO HP Nanda says.

Ebeling joins HES from Bridgewater, New Jersey-based Messer Americas, where he served as executive vice president of sales and marketing for U.S. bulk products. In this role, HES says he oversaw sales and applications teams generating much of the multi-billion-dollar regional revenue, managed product strategy, customer experience and research and development initiatives. Since 2017, Ebeling also was Messer’s executive board chair for the Compressed Gas Association. 

Prior to his role at Messer, Ebeling served as vice president of marketing for North and South America at Linde Gas NA LLC, a U.K.-based chemical manufacturing company, and was the general manager of Linde’s Canadian business. In each of these roles, HES says he instituted sales strategies that exceeded budgets by delivering new products, optimizing processes and aligning teams.
