Linear economy focuses on producing, using, and disposing, while circular economy emphasizes the full lifecycle and use of products to maximize resource utilization. This research aims to analyze the shift from linear economy production processes to circular economy models for sustainable and innovative production. Framed within a qualitative paradigm, the study employs an exploratory descriptive and bibliographic research approach, using a hermeneutic method. The evidence obtained is expected to demonstrate that adopting a circular economy model in production processes leads to sustainability within the framework of innovation, making it highly beneficial for the environment. This, in turn, encourages producers to apply this model across all organizational areas, contributing to planet preservation and pollution elimination. In conclusion, the research compares the linear economy, which operates on a "produce, use, dispose" cycle, with the circular economy, which maximizes the use and reuse of resources throughout a product's lifecycle.
