Measured soil carbon improvement, built for Australian conditions

CarbonMax is a soil amendment designed to increase soil organic carbon (SOC) in a measurable, explainable way — using real trials and national soil data to guide where and how it’s applied.

What is CarbonMax?

CarbonMax™ is AAGT’s soil amendment designed to increase soil organic carbon and improve soil performance — quickly where conditions allow, and sustainably over time.

In AAGT field trials, CarbonMax has demonstrated measurable improvements in soil carbon and related soil function indicators within a single harvest cycle, while continuing to build benefits with ongoing use.

CarbonMax is built for Australian farming systems, focusing on real-world performance: improving soil structure, supporting biological activity, and helping soils hold and cycle carbon more effectively.

Why SOC Matters?

  • Water holding & resilience
    Higher SOC improves infiltration and buffering during dry or variable seasons.

  • Soil structure & stability
    Better aggregation reduces erosion and compaction risk.

  • Productivity over time
    SOC underpins nutrient cycling and biological activity.

  • Future readiness
    SOC is increasingly linked to sustainability reporting, carbon frameworks, and land valuation.

What makes CarbonMax different?

Hands Holding Soil

CarbonMax is not a generic soil input. It is the result of targeted trials, material science, and a deep focus on how Australian soils respond under real farming conditions.

Aerial Farmland View
Unlike many products that rely on broad claims, CarbonMax has been developed and refined through on-farm testing, with outcomes measured against baseline soil conditions and tracked over time.
Wheat Field Harvest
The focus is simple: deliver a product that performs consistently, integrates into existing systems, and produces improvements that can be observed, measured, and built upon season after season.

How CarbonMax fits into your system

CarbonMax is designed to work with existing farming systems, not replace them.

It can be applied alongside current nutrient, crop, and management programs, helping soils respond more efficiently to what growers are already doing. In many cases, early improvements in soil condition have been observed within a single harvest, with benefits compounding as soil function improves over time.​

CarbonMax gives growers a practical way to invest in soil performance — supporting productivity today, while steadily building soil carbon, resilience, and long-term value.

Turning industrial waste into productive soil inputs

CarbonMax is produced by repurposing large-scale industrial by-products that would otherwise remain long-term environmental liabilities. Through a controlled manufacturing process, these materials are stabilised and transformed into a safe, carbon-rich soil amendment designed for agricultural use.

This approach creates a practical circular economy outcome — linking Australia’s mining and energy sectors with agriculture — by converting waste streams into productive soil inputs that support soil structure, carbon retention, and long-term land performance.

Ready to build stronger soils?

CarbonMax is already being used in Australian systems to improve soil function, lift performance, and create measurable change in the paddock.

If you’re looking for a practical way to improve soil carbon, resilience, and long-term productivity — CarbonMax is built to get you there.

Let’s talk about what CarbonMax could look like on your land.
