Marikilux Retractable Awning In Cassette

The Best-Engineered Awnings & Exterior Solar Screens In The World

Precision Engineering Provides Unmatched Performance For Commercial Buildings

Markilux designs and produces every part of their highly durable, light and creative frameworks, mechanisms and fabric covers in-house. Markilux's 450,000 square-foot factory has been praised as a "green factory" that exceeds all European Union and U.S. standards for pollution control, energy efficiency and recycling of waste.

Markilux Is The World's Commercial Awning & Exterior Solar Screen Technology Innovator

A few of the innovative product developments introduced by Markilux include:

  • Kevlar "bionic tendons" for added arm strength and longevity
  • Sunsilk SNC (sunsilk nano clean) awning fabric for a self-cleaning finish that is weather and fade-resistant
  • Ultrasonic bonding and laser cutting of fabric seams improves appearance and durability

In Europe, where awnings are a way of life, Markilux is the "gold standard" for retractable commercial awnings.

Commercial Awning Mechanisms Engineered To Last

  • All products are produced with drop-forged aluminum or steel (rather than cast parts which are susceptible to stress fractures and breakage)
  • Larger diameter upper arm provides rigidity without adding weight, keeping optimum tension on the fabric
  • 85mm fabric rollers, larger than any others in the awning industry, bend minimally for maximum tensile strength and a taut fabric cover that is more aesthetically pleasing.
  • The only awning manufacturer to use rounded steel-link chains, gas piston technology, or kevlar "bionic tendons" in the arms, rather than cables (which will fray and break over time)
  • Teflon-coated bushings provide a smooth gliding action and all bolts and screws are stainless steel
