korkealaatuisille

Korkealaatuisille is the allative plural form of the Finnish compound adjective korkealaatuinen, meaning “high-quality.” In Finnish, korkealaatuisille is formed by taking the stem korkealaatuis-, which comes from korkea + laatuinen, and attaching the allative plural suffix -ille. The form is used to indicate the target group or the intended use when the noun being described is in the plural allative (for/to high-quality ones).

The primary grammatical function of korkealaatuisille is to modify a noun in phrases where the action or designation is directed toward or intended for high-quality items, services, or people. In practice, it appears in marketing, product descriptions, and service contexts to signal suitability for premium segments. Common constructions include korkealaatuisille tuotteille (for high-quality products), korkealaatuisille asiakkaille (for discerning customers), and korkealaatuisille markkinoille suunnatut ratkaisut (solutions targeted at premium markets). The base adjective in the nominative plural is korkealaatuiset.
