New Exclusive* option available
The standard Jaxida covers have a great reputation around the world for
high quality and long life. However, no product lasts forever outdoors
in harsh environments.
Jaxida has now released an optional new
Exclusive* version which offers the features listed below. The option
ads 10% to the cost of the covers. I highly recommend it.
- * Material
- two year guarantee
- lighter in weight
- stronger
- 100% UV-protection
- 100% water proof
- color fast (does not become yellow)
Overview
What was once covered in Denmark - now has a new home in Southern Germany
The name Jaxida, honours Verner Jaxland, the company’s founder and cover
designer. Since 1992 Jaxida has made the world’s finest glider covers. To
create the name he coupled his nick name “Jaxi” with “da” for his native
Denmark.
In 2009 the Schwenks, a well known gliding family, purchased the company and
are proud to further develop Jaxi’s ideas and to produce Jaxida covers in
their home town of Münsingen, Germany.
The story begins with Verner Jaksland realising he needed to protect his
expensive ASW22 glider from damaging UV radiation, condensation, dirt and
rain. However he did not want to de-rig his glider each night. So he
developed a unique combination of high quality fabrics and carefully shaped
them perfectly fit his glider. This was so successful he went on to design
and manufacture beautifully crafted, easy to use covers for almost every
type of glider.
Today Verner’s Jaxida covers are the benchmark for cover performance and
famous throughout the global gliding community. His high performance Jaxida
covers are seen on more gliders by far than any other make. Now there are
also products to cover microlight aircraft, boats and motor cars. Jaxida has
become synonymous with quality, service, research and development and
innovative design.
The Schwenk family have been cutting cloth and selling clothes since 1843.
Uli, a German National Champion regularly travels the world competing in
International Gliding Grand Prix and World Championships. He knows how
important a glider’s cover can be in harsh environments found in places like
Nevada, Europe, New Zealand, Southern Africa and Chile. Before buying the
company in 2009 Uli was the German Jaxida agent so he knows the product
inside out.
Uli's daughter Daniela, brought up in both gliding and the “rag trade”,
understands production, fabric development and above all the personalized
service that glider pilots demand.
Jaxida has an exciting future!
At the
2006 World Championship in Eskildstuna, Sweden JAXIDA Covers were
represented on 53 of the 120 participating gliders! In fact,
Jaxida has sold more than 5000 sailplane covers to customers around the world.
They are known for their Allweather Covers, but they also make very nice
Dust Covers and Canopy Covers.
Import Tariff/Duty
I have recently learned that Jaxida Covers imported into the United States
are being charged duty/tariff of 8.8%. In May of 2010 UPS charged me
8.8% for duty plus fixed charges of $25 for "Govt. Charges Other Than
Duties" (UPS handling fees) plus another $6 for "Brokerage Fees" (more UPS
handling fees). Please expect to pay similar charges on your Jaxida
covers upon arrival.
Types of Covers
Jaxida produces two types of covers.
Allweather Covers (for use outside) and Dust Covers (for use indoors - such
as in a hangar).
Both types of covers are available as complete aircraft covers or as
cockpit covers (short and long versions).

durability
