What is a USM Second Hand Partner?

A USM Second Hand Partner is a certified expert in the life cycle of your design classics. The USM Haller modular system has been an icon of architecture for over 50 years – built to last for generations and virtually indestructible. As this furniture outlasts eras, the market for second-hand classics is growing steadily. As a result, it is becoming increasingly difficult for USM to maintain quality assurance at this high standard. As an official partner, we at usm-markt.ch ensure that this timeless aesthetic and uncompromising functionality are perfectly preserved and remain within the design cycle. 

We support discerning private and business clients both in the purchase and sale of first-class pre-owned vehicles and are committed to the highest standards of professionalism.

Artisan-level quality

For us, ‘second-hand’ does not mean ‘worn out’. To meet the diverse needs of our customers, we offer our items in clearly defined categories. USM shelving units in ‘as-new’ and ‘top-quality second-hand’ condition come with a 6-month guarantee. This is because every single piece of furniture undergoes a rigorous, standardised refurbishment process. The items are completely dismantled, thoroughly cleaned, put through their paces with a technical inspection and, where necessary, fitted with original spare parts.

You can find out more about our condition classifications on the ‘New or second-hand?’ page. 

Circular economy in action

In a changing world, we are committed to genuine resource conservation. Buying from a certified partner combines environmental awareness with modern, premium interiors. By preserving, refurbishing and reconfiguring existing structures, we practise a circular economy at the highest level. You are investing in design icons that retain their value whilst making a measurable contribution to the sustainable use of valuable raw materials.
