Roberts PolyPro EasyLift single bottle handles on large bottles provide consumers with a comfortable four-finger grip. These carriers are a consumer convenience feature for large, heavy water and juice jugs sold in convenience, grocery, and big box stores. These high density polyethylene (HDPE #2) handles are 100 percent recyclable.

Roberts PolyPro can create distinctive handles for every customer by utilizing vibrant Pantone Matching System (PMS) colors. A unique design make EasyLift handles 60 to 75 percent thinner than injection molded handles. This enables Roberts PolyPro to ship significantly more handles per pallet than other suppliers and reduce transportation costs for its customers. These handles are easily and quickly loaded magazine style – like staples into a stapler – which lowers operator handling time. Standard handle sizes include 28mm, 38mm, 43mm and 48mm cap sizes for various bottle diameters. Custom sizes are available.
