Advancing Environmental Stewardship through Circular-Carbon Innovation
At AC Innovations, we are dedicated to enhancing soil health using cutting-edge biochar technologies and circular-carbon methods, driving sustainable environmental progress through focused research and development.

Founder & Collaborators
AC Innovations is founded and led by Tony Callaghan, drawing on 15 years of innovation across composting, biochar, soil systems and carbon-circular product design.
How AC Innovations Works
Work is delivered through a coalition-style model with trusted partners in manufacturing, composting, biochar production and digital development. Projects combine hands-on technical expertise with strategic IP and digital asset development.
Using systems-based problem analysis, we research market needs and opportunities in depth. We then develop practical, scalable solutions that are ready for industry adoption.

Experience
