markilux - awnings made in Germany

markilux is one of the largest German brand name in awnings and for more than a quarter of a century now we have been making sure that life on the balcony and the patio is made even more enjoyable.

We are bringing two sets of skills to this task: on the one hand our technical understanding of design engineering, and on the other a highly developed knowledge of textiles. We design and produce every part of our highly durable, light and creative frameworks and mechanisms in house – to measure, for your own personal place in the sun. And the stunning covers available for your markilux (which can also be ordered separately) are also designed and produced by us.

markilux is not market leader without reason - our clients consider us the experts of attractive sun shades. Shades that last a small eternity.

A powerful design is all the range

With the design of its awnings, markilux has time and again shown angles and edges as well as round shapes over the years. It seems that this has appealed to their customers. Therefore the look of the current new product, the cassette awning markilux 970, too, is simple and angular.

Contemporary architecture is one thing above all: purist. Straight lines, a clear-cut design, no frills to be seen. Nothing distracts the eye. This form of lifestyle culture conveys peace to the senses. And then it makes sense to adapt any additional detail to complement the architecture.
