Maxxon SIBS, reasonable quality?

[SpearRib]

We see these SIBS a lot here and they are reasonably priced, somewhere between the cheap imports and the Zodiacs.

They say they are made from German PVC, is this the same as Zodiac PVC?

Are they made in Malta?

Are they considered one of the better cheaper options?

77 Views and noone has heard of them?

Please help.

I've heard of them, but not seen many, and don't have any experience of them. I expect that most people here are in a similar situation.

Sorry if it feels like you're being ignored, but I'm sure that if anyone can help they will!

I have no direct experience but they are not very common in the UK and it is hard to find information on them so their used prices are very low. They are made by a Korean company that's been going since the 70s.

They were, and possibly still are, are glued PVC rather than seam welded.

Oh I thought they were made in Malta, thats handy to know. The PVC information is german pvc i believe.
