The Pergola Cubic range of awnings from German shading solutions manufacturer Markilux is specifically designed for modern architecture.

The cubic form is a familiar sight on city office-scapes around the world and some of today's architect-designed homes and modular, customisable self-build designs also harness the simplicity of the cube form. 

Pergola Cubic meets a growing demand from homeowners for awnings that complement and enhance their modern minimalist properties.

All Markilux's Pergola awnings are supported by two front posts and are available in four versions: Classic, Compact, Stretch and Pergola Cubic, which is based on the technology of the Classic model, but with a modified angular cassette that holds and stores the cover.

'Shortly after we launched the Pergola Cubic in 2022, we had a high volume of orders,' says Markilux managing director Michael Gerling.

'Like most firms, we usually launch new products at the start of the season so they have time to establish. But because of delays to supply chains and some technical issues, this wasn’t possible with the Pergola Cubic and it was late to launch. That made us all the more pleased about the immediate high demand for the product.'

6 reasons to specify Markilux Pergola Cubic awnings

  • With a width and projection of up to six metres, one Pergola Cubic awning can shade more than 30 square metres.
  • Up to five units can be combined to cover even larger areas.
  • The awnings feature the Tracfix system, which guides the cover flush along the side rails.
  • A tensioning system with integrated gas pistons maintains optimum cover tension when the awning is in any extended position, keeping it stable in the wind.
  • For a variety of lighting effects, LED systems can be integrated in the guide tracks, on the cover support tube or under the cassette.
  • Other customisable options include adjustable posts for better water drainage with only a slight tilt of the cover surface; the choice of a manually or solar-powered Shadeplus awning; and a ground fixing or stabilisation box option for securing the awning.
