Carrier bag handle

Carrying anything from shopping to a gift can be difficult if you are physically challenged.

To make matters even more difficult, it is not only the effort of carrying the item, but also the holding or gripping of the item that can present a challenge.

A case in point is the plastic carrier bag.

Carrier bags, particularly the free ones given out by supermarkets, are not the easiest of bags to carry. The handle part will often tighten and contact to a "string like" diameter and when this happens they can dig into the hand and they become very uncomfortable to grip. They can even affect circulation.

The solution

One way around this is to take a proper fabric or material bag, however another option is to use a special carrier bag handle.

These special bag attachments clip around the hand opening in the free bags and offer a secure and easy to hold handle that is designed to take the grip of the fingers. Handles of this type do not contract and they are ergonomically designed.

These detachable handles can normally hold multiple "plastic type" bags and they can easily be stored in a handbag of pocket when not in use. They work with most free supermarket and high street store plastic bags.

These handles are normally sold in packs and come in different colours. They are lightweight.
