What are Soft Panels?
We recently visited the USM showroom in Hamburg and took a look at the new soft panels from USM Haller.
Here's a video about it:
The Soft Panels are expected to be available from USM Haller or third-party partners in January 2026.
I found that the panels were quite lightweight and easy to install. The soft panels are magnetic and attach to the tubes.
Opening and closing the panels required a bit of practice. If you're not careful, the panels can slip out. Moving them around wasn't always entirely straightforward either.
USM says that the soft panels can also be used as noise dampeners, which I can definitely imagine.
I also found it interesting that the panels, made from high-quality synthetic fiber, consist of 40% recycled ocean plastic from Seaqual.
There's quite a large selection of different colors and patterns available.
Here's also a second video:
I'll probably get one or two shelving units with the new soft panels.

Frequently Asked Questions
Yes, glass shelves are a popular premium option. They suit display cabinets or work as a visual accent. Important: glass shelves are thicker and heavier than metal panels, so consider the load capacity of the connectors.
