What is memory foam?
Memory foam is a viscoelastic polyurethane foam that reacts to pressure and warmth and then perfectly adapts to the contours of your body.
The ideal room temperature for the material to fulfill this purpose is approx. 18° C. Due to the inertial elasticity which causes the body's imprint to stay on the material for 1-2 seconds, we call this material memory foam.
