I have done all my printing in Germany for a few years now and can also highly recommend it. The companies we have dealt with have been excellent in proofing the data. They have gotten back to me because an image was fractions of a millimetre off compared to other images in my brochure and similar minuscule details that make the difference between a good and a great product.
The best way is to use Google Translate and find the German name of the product you want to manufacture and search like that since a lot of sites are in German only.
We are based in the UK so we're getting the benefits of being in the EU but even for the US market it might be worth looking into.
