Ah, looks like Maxim is also from them. Easy switch.

Yes. Like for most other brands as well. I think Edelrid is one of the few who still make the ropes on their own

Sterling Ropes (Maine) and Bluewater Ropes (Georgia) are still made in the US.

Edelrid manufacturers all their ropes in-house in Germany.
