squeezability

How easily compressed

Squeezability is how readily something can be squeezed—its capacity to be compressed or deformed under pressure.

The term appears in product descriptions for items meant to be handled: The toy's squeezability makes it perfect for stress relief.

In technical contexts, it may describe material properties like compressibility or pliability.
