This is the sentence that it appears in:
XXXX® è un materiale accogliente e termovariabile, capace di reagire alla temperatura umana e di adattarsi alla personale struttura morfologica del corpo, per poi ritornare alla forma originaria in modo lento e controllato.
I can't use welcoming but that is the idea. A material that almost welcomes you into bed, adapting to your body.
Is there a technical term for this quality? Any suggestions?

an idea....

I was also thinking to something like "cosy" but I don't know if it could work in this case....

Comment: "This is what I used. I thought I needed something more technical, like conformable for example, but actually comfortable works just fine. Thanks."

pleasurable / pleasureful
Another idea.
Too bad you can't use welcoming. It would be perfect.
Pleasurable is more than simply comfy or cosy, so you might find it suitable.
