The handle has a coloured grip at the top made from plastic (polypropylene) that has a ribbed appearance. The handles are coloured red, blue, green or yellow. There is a hole at the top of each handle and through the plastic grip so that the item can be hung for storage. The opposite end of the handle is screw-threaded so that a non-interchange mop head can be attached – that is a mop head not part of the ‘interchangeable system’ of products available from the trader. The mop handles are individually packaged in a plastic bag and supplied in quantities of 10 in an outer cardboard carton.
