Once tightened, the yellow hose clips hold each one firmly in place.

Here are some more details from the designer:
Hose clip shelving is a extendible shelving system which consists of three main components: wooden pole, steel bracket and shelf board.
The repetition of those components create a versatile, modular, flat pack shelving unit which introduces standard hose clips to the furniture world.
A magnetic curtain adds a soft element to the structure which allows the user to have closed compartments in a very open storage system.
Material: solid ash, ash veneered ply, steel, hose clips with PP wing nut
