The main "old" Philips building in central Stockholm (in which I worked 
for about 2-3 weeks temporarily in 1972) has probably closed its 
business since some ten years back. They are now located northwest of 
Stockholm: www.philips.se (I haven't tried it)
Central fax: Int + 468 598 52770
Philips Support, fax: Int + 468 598 527 44
Philips Components, fax: Int +468 598 527 45
That's what I found in our phone book and many other numbers. Please 
email me directly if there are further questions.
If I remember right, Philips in Stockholm sold some materials for use in 
schools around 1970 (this may have included radioactive materials) but 
that business may have closed down.
