Ruggedized monitors exist, for sure. I'll point you in the direction but you have now stumbled into the industrial realm, my friend. (My own pocketbook has just scampered off somewhere in fear just by thinking about it.)
The biggest problem with ruggedized equipment is that it is generally smaller (for durability) and usually a generation or two behind current market. It's usually got durability certifications or military approval attached to it.
Military grade aside, you probably want to focus on restaurant or factory grade equipment. Unfortunately, that stuff generally also comes with an industrial price tag.
(tl;dr: I found a company at the last link that may be a good happy medium between military and general commerical.)
