DeckSentry leads on toploaders; Dragon Shield leads on sleeves
Dragon Shield is a globally recognised brand best known for their premium card sleeves. Their toploader range is a newer addition and doesn't carry the same reputation as their sleeve line. DeckSentry is purpose-built for toploader excellence — acid-free archival materials, precision-engineered fit, and 99.9% optical clarity. For retailers, the smart move is Dragon Shield for sleeves and DeckSentry for toploaders: best-in-class products in each category rather than one brand for everything.
