As a manufacturer of Automated Teller Machines (ATMs) which are subject to considerable mechanical abuse, we have not found any particular standards detailing tests for such abuse. There are requirements for impact tests for the exterior of enclosures which would give access to hazards, in IEC 60950. (Dropping the 50 mm dia steel ball thru 1.3m). I would suggest that you consider using clear polycarbonate sheet rather than glass, since such sheeting is very resistant to abuse. Have a look at your competitors products !
