Abstract

A container for storing and/or transporting objects is made of a plastics material and comprises a base extending in a first direction and at least two side walls (3) extending from the base in a second, substantially perpendicular direction. The container is provided with a handle section (6) covered at least partially with a gripping layer (7) made out of a thermoplastic material having a smaller hardness than said plastics material. Suitable view holes (19) allow the gripping layer material to be visible and to form indicia, such as letters and numbers. The handle section (6) may be substantially U-shaped so as to provide a cavity (18) which may be filled with the thermoplastic material constituting the gripping layer (7).
