OLIVA's product portfolio spans SCHÜCO-based PVC window systems (Corona CT 70, LivIng, Aluinside/ThermoPlus), aluminium window, door and facade systems, lift-slide doors, roller shutters, and fire/smoke protection elements, with thermal insulation values reaching passive-house level.

The company operates a pure B2B channel-partner model, selling exclusively to a network of approximately 400 specialist dealers (Fachhändler) across Germany and select European markets (Ireland and Spain since 2003), with no direct-to-consumer sales.
