A device for handling light objects, such as CDs, with one hand without the objects being touched with the hand, the device having one or more suction parts configured for inspiration against a plane face of the object and a gripper configured for being seized and secured with one hand. A flexible elastomer body is provided at the gripper which is configured for complete or partial filling and emptying of a void in order to produce, via one or more communication passages, a sub atmospheric pressure between the suction parts and the plane face of the objects upon abutment and inspiration by the device against the object.
