CARRYFIX is a portable handle developed by Formeta Design for carrying several shopping bags together. The design responds to the pressure of thin bag handles against the hand and the difficulty of managing separate loads.

Design Approach
A rotating lock gathers the handles into one grip and allows bags to be inserted or removed. The compact form was developed around that movement, keeping the mechanism part of a small object that can travel with the user.
The project began with an everyday handling problem and turned it into a focused product. CARRYFIX is part of Formeta’s own product work.
