Faced with a low adaptation to the transition to a global product circular economy (CE), product modularity can be a facilitator in the creation of practices that contribute to CE. In this sense, there are many studies that approach product modularity and EC in individual ways, but the integration between both is still poorly addressed. In this context, this study aims to analyze the contribution of product modularity to business models from a circular economy perspective. For this, a systematic review of the literature was carried out that shows the evolution of studies over the years, main sectors in which the research was developed, main journals, co-citations of references and co-occurrence of keywords. From this, it was possible to identify that the relationship between modularity and CE has become more evident in recent years, showing the relevance of this topic in the current context. In addition, based on the literature, fifteen benefits of modularity that can contribute to the implementation of CE strategies, however, there are five barriers from the CE perspective that can inhibit the contribution process. Still based on the literature, it was possible to create an integrative structure that shows how product modularity can contribute to the CE, explaining benefits and barriers. Subsequently, a Delphi study was conducted with specialists in the field of. Thus, it was possible to refine the integrative structure, resulting in the degree of influence of modularity barriers on benefits from the CE perspective. From the results, research propositions were defined, as well as an integrative visual tool related to product modularity with CE was proposed. As a contribution, we highlight the advance in theoretical and empirical knowledge about the integration of product modularity with CE, as well as the proposed tool aims to help companies reflect on their current business model, identifying opportunities for innovation aimed at the EC.
