The cassette awning that has it all

There are cassette awnings and there is a cassette awning that has won the Red Dot Design Award. The Markilux 6000 cassette awning is the absolute reference model in the range: 700 × 400 cm of coverage, 28 m² of shade, motorised super-shade up to 350 cm, dimmable LED spotlights on the Markilux 6000 integrated into the front profile, and an optional infrared heater. Cortinsa, as an official Markilux installer in Barcelona and Madrid, installs it in luxury residences, hotels and restaurants where the awning is an integral part of the terrace design.
The most notable differentiator of the 6000 from the rest of the cassette range is its lighting system: the LED spotlights are integrated into the front profile and project light downwards, creating a terrace atmosphere entirely independent of natural light. The intensity is dimmable via io technology from an app or remote control. Together with the motorised super-shade and the optional infrared heater, the 6000 transforms any terrace into a space usable throughout all four seasons. For smaller-scale options, visit our Markilux cassette awnings section.
The side cassette covers of the Markilux 6000 offer a level of personalisation unmatched elsewhere in the catalogue: the frame can be powder-coated, bright chrome, or stainless-steel woven fabric. The brackets feature elegant covers that conceal the fixings, maintaining clean lines when the awning is retracted. The bionic tendon has been validated by the Fraunhofer Institute — the only reference to an external laboratory in the entire Markilux catalogue. For luxury terrace awnings in Barcelona, the 6000 is the reference that architecture and interior design studios specify as standard.
For projects requiring technical solar-protection specification, Cortinsa provides BIM files in Revit (.rfa) and IFC formats in the Cortinsa BIM Library. For projects requiring permanent structural coverage, we also install bioclimatic pergolas with adjustable louvres as a complementary or alternative solution.

Frequently asked questions about the Markilux 6000

What sets the Markilux 6000 apart from the rest of the Markilux cassette awning range?

The 6000 is the only cassette awning in the range that combines dimmable LED spotlights in the front profile, motorised super-shade up to 350 cm and an infrared heater in the same unit. It is also the only one to have been awarded the Red Dot Design Award. It is the benchmark for anyone seeking the finest cassette awning available on the market.

LED spotlights are integrated into the front profile and project light onto the terrace. The intensity is adjustable via Somfy io technology, from a remote control, wall switch, smartphone app, or Smart Home system with automatic scheduling.

The 6000’s super-shadow deploys a vertical awning of up to 350 cm — the largest super-shadow projection in the entire Markilux catalogue. Unlike other models where it is only available in manual, on the 6000 it can be motorised and controlled from the same remote as the main awning.

Yes. With the optional infrared heater integrated into the housing, the terrace is usable in autumn and winter. The heater provides a uniform thermal effect with no pre-heating phase. Combined with the super-shade extended, it creates a pleasant terrace microclimate even at low temperatures.

Up to 700 cm wide and 400 cm in projection for individual installation, with a shading surface of 28 m². Also available in coupled configuration for larger-scale projects.

The side covers allow three finishes: powder-coated in the hardware colour, bright chrome, or stainless steel fabric. Over 200 canopy designs from the Collection One, 7 standard hardware colours plus special RAL colours. Each awning is made to measure in Germany.

Cortinsa provides BIM files in Revit (.rfa) and IFC formats, compatible with ArchiCAD, Vectorworks, Navisworks and any BIM software. Available with free professional registration in the Cortinsa BIM Library.
