These also look like they can take a couple of good knocks and keep functioning. You don't really want sleek and glass covered like the new modern looking phones for a warehouse.

That too. LCDs meant for industrial use are indeed more robust and made to last. Not only screens of course. Glass or carbon reinforced plastics are used commonly due to really good properties where it can take a beating but remain flexible without cracking. Like you said, metal and glass don't combine well.
