The holder requires minimal storage space. Compared to pulp trays, it fills fewer black sacks, saving on the hassles of disposal.
Handle-it can also be printed for use as a loyalty card to encourage re-use of the cup holder. It can be folded up small enough to keep in a bag or pocket until it is next required after use.
It will be distributed by Tri-Star Packaging in the UK.
Tri-Star managing director Kevin Curran said that Handle-it provides a solution to the age-old problem of never having enough hands free to carry everything one needs to.
