Phillips

It is interesting to note that Phillips is headquartered in the Netherlands, and as such enjoys truly a global reputation for outstanding products. You may know Phillips from its various divisions, some of which deal with domestic appliances, lighting and also consumer electronics.

Later on, Phillips’ claim to fame also included the electric razor, then a huge success on the market.

Phillips always managed to be on the cutting edge of technology and as such very often collaborated with market giants. Take for example the early introduction of the compact cassette and later the laserdisc player which launched its name with music aficionados as well as movie buffs everywhere.
