Successful sun protection project: year-round use of outdoor catering facilities

The desire was to create an inviting place of coziness and enjoyment. This includes recurring structures that create harmony, protected retreat corners, but also the possibility of being able to come together with a convivial round at a large table.

Whereas in the past the outdoor area could only be used in the summer months when the weather was fine, thanks to the markilux sun and weather protection systems installed as part of the project, outdoor catering is now possible almost all year round. In addition to the expansion of the gastronomic outdoor season, this is also associated with an increase in capacity: more space for more guests.

The first contact between the Kern winery and markilux team : project took place in mid-2021 via R+T Stuttgart, the world's leading trade fair for roller shutters, doors and sun protection.

As part of its trade fair planning for 2022, R+T launched a new synergy initiative for the Stuttgart Trade Fair and Congress Center: R+T projects. The aim was to promote installation projects between the well-known R+T product category suppliers and trade fair exhibitors from other sectors or other project owners and to stage their implementation in the form of a marketing campaign at R+T 2022.

As a kind of superordinate mediator, R+T first issued an exclusive sun protection tender to the exhibitors at the Stuttgart trade fair for this purpose. This is how the Kern winery and the markilux team : project found each other.

With the first design planning, the markilux team : project enters its creative phase. Initial ideas for shading options according to customer requirements and local conditions are presented.

In discussions with Mr. Kern, the markilux team : project first recorded the various requirements and also went into visual detail. In a next step, the design planning was presented to the restaurateur in an online meeting. In addition to the presentation of initial details, insights into the visualization were possible, which meant that some changes could already be taken into account for further planning.

After the completion of the execution phase, a quotation with detailed installation and cost planning was submitted to the Kern winery. After the order was placed, the specialised markilux partner, Kehrbeck Rollladen- und Sonnenschutz-Technik GmbH, was able to start with the implementation under the organisational management of team : projects.

The final installation was carried out with technical support from markilux team : service, our technical customer service.

After the installation was completely finished, Mr. Kern, the markilux specialist partner Kehrbeck and the team : project came together again for a final inspection.

Mr. Kern also received professional instruction on the functions of his new sun and weather protection.
