The objective of this invention is to provide a handle for carrying an article or a bundle of bottles that is more resistant to tearing and delaminating and can carry heavy loads. This is accomplished by placing a strip on the inside of the wrapping material so that the strip that forms the handle is enclosed within the wrapping material. The strip film maintains direct contact with the wrapping film. Direct contact is achieved by electrostatic bonding of the handle film on the wrapping film. Therefor more than 80% of the handle seals to the wrapping film.
