They are sagging only after a year of use. Love Ikea and love the look of Pax but don’t like the sagging shelves look. Need to sure this up.

Don’t know what a pax unit is, but you can buy L brackets at hardware that have holes to screw to back of unit and underneath that shelf for additional support. Line them up with the shelf end supports for correct height
You might be able to order a new shelf. Actually most likely. Im just about to order the same thing to create a large closet system and your post scares me a bit. Can you tell me what you had on that shelf? How long is it? Thanks

If it were me, I would buy real wood shelves and lighten the load on each shelf.
Add an L bracket to support it
