What makes our Jerba Campervans’ pop top roof different to so many other UK manufacturers and brands?

• Streamlined – reducing wind noise and complimenting the lines of the original vehicle, our roof is certainly one of, if not the quietest pop top roof and through careful design it blends almost seamlessly into the factory van. A separate nose cone with a specially designed seal to the elevating roof ensures both rain and air noise are kept to the outside. Inside the vehicle we use an easy rotating metal latch for added security alongside the commonly used simple webbing straps.
• Fully Removable Unzipping Canvas – many pop-top roof manufactures now offer a “safari” canvas with a large unzippable front section allowing both fresh air and all around views, but virtually no other canvas can be unzipped and entirely removed in a matter of minutes. In the event of accidental damage, removing our roof canvas can be done simply by customers at home and then sent to us for repair, saving you expensive trips in visiting a specialist converter.
• Ventile Watertight & Breathable Cotton Canvas – pop-top roofs frequently promote 100% waterproof canvases but this is often only achieved through the use of non-breathable acrylic fabrics, which unfortunately almost guarantee internal condensation. We have chosen 100% cotton Ventile, a fully breathable and watertight fabric that is woven in Switzerland and creates no mould-inducing condensation. We also apply seam sealing tape to our stitching lines and use the world leading manufacturer YKK for all of our zips, just like your Gortex jacket!
• Midge Proof Windows & Vents – little can ruin your trip away more than small biting insects, such as the Highland Midge, finding their way into your van through the canvas windows and vents. We’ve specially chosen our mesh to keep out these tiny biters, whereas we see so many other pop-tops where this simply isn’t the case, even the VW California!
• 100kg Roof Rack Capacity – with two kayaks in mind, our UK manufactured fibreglass elevating roof is designed to maximise your roof carrying load. Many other pop-top roofs set a limit at 60kg, so the extra capacity we provide aims to give customers a more flexible solution.
• Type Approved by the VCA – our pop-top roof has passed a detailed inspection by Vehicle Certification Agency engineers and is a key part of our UK Small Series Type Approval.
