The markant by markilux is our flagship free standing metal awning. It features a high-quality aluminum frame, complemented by a top-of-the-line awning fabric to help create the perfect outdoor living environment.
Due to its purist design, the markant lends itself well to being used in all kinds of areas, from backyards & patios to gardens. Because of this, the markant is commonly used as commercial free standing awnings for luxury hotels, and even in restaurants for al fresco dining.
Perla and Perla FR covers are ideal for the markant due to their water resistant coating. Perla FR is also highly flame resistant, making it ideal for fire-prone areas like restaurants.
The award-winning planet awning system has a single support pole and a retractable awning, combining the lightness of an umbrella with the large shading of an awning. It’s versatile enough to work in different environments and is excellent as a portable deck awning or when used on patios or by the pool.
The planet’s most notable feature is its ability to rotate. The Flex version rotates up to 335 degrees so you always have shade exactly where you need. Rotation is simple to do with the Easy-Go lever and a safety lock to prevent over-rotation.
A non-rotating version is also available.
The markilux syncra is a free-standing awning attachment frame that can accommodate one or two awnings. It rests on two poles. As a single unit, it already offers great coverage of up to 60m². Multiple awnings can be combined to provide even larger shading areas as needed.
With strong posts at each end, and a sturdy beam running across the middle, the syncra awning frame is made to thrive in both tame and harsh outdoor conditions.
With the syncra, you have a choice of two different installation options:
You can opt for the stand-alone double-sided syncra or the single-sided syncra, which can attach to an existing structure based on your requirements. For even more customization, combine your syncra with a pergola to create the syncra pergola which offers additional support posts and lateral cover guidance for superior size and wind stability.
Make your outdoor space more functional and beautiful with the versatile and customizable syncra awning system!

“They stand behind (there work) when there is a problem and that’s been our experience with ERS and that’s why we continue to work with them.”
“What we were buying was an insurance of quality of workmanship and the people that were standing behind their product.”
"It was the only way to shield this particular window."
“Had we not decided to put it up, I’d be very sad because we wouldn’t be living out on our patio as much as we are today.”
