Markilux smart awnings the latest in German design & engineering

Committed to being the market leader in awning technology and innovation, markilux has developed the new 6000 Uber Cocoon. This prize-winning awning is equipped with technical innovations that set new standards in design, quality and durability for sun shading. The 6000 is available in three distinct lines Club, Studio and Lounge that complement various styles of architecture.

Club
Vibrancy and freshness. The cassette is available in white powder-coated aluminium with colourful end-caps in yellow, blue and red.

Studio
Modern and timeless style. This line of cassettes is powder-coated in an aluminium colour and accented by various coloured end-caps.

Lounge
A range with more subdued tones that utilises steel webbing, wood, black and polished chrome. The Lounge features a new technology called "nano coating," which creates a self-cleaning property. Particles of dirt are unable to adhere to the surface allowing rainwater to simply wash it away.

Features

• Bionic Tendon - New folding-arm element manufactured using exceptionally stable and strong blend of manmade fibres.
• Stress-tested on 50,000 movements without signs of fatigue with daily use, that is a lifespan of more than 50 years.
• Extreme strength, able to bear more than 10,000 Newtons of tensile force. At around one tonne, this is the equivalent to the weight of a small car.
• Tendon optimises the transmission of force from the arm joint to the front profile which in turn improves the fabric cover tension.
• Ensures friction-free, noiseless bending of the arms.
• Highly tear-resistant, durable and maintenance free.
• Strong, oversized 85mm roller tube ensures cover rolls evenly, preventing sagging.
• Standard operation is manual with a 5:1 ratio gearbox and a removable, stainless-steel winding handle.
