Abstract

A description is given of a component (1) having at least one area of plastic (3, 21), which extends with the surface (32) thereof that is facing a front side (28) along a reference plane (22). The component is characterized in that, in this area of plastic (3, 21), the wall of plastic (27) has a wall thickness (d) in the range of 0.2-5 mm, in this area of plastic (3, 21) there is formed a continuous two-dimensional grid (30) of channel-shaped depressions (6), in which depressions (6) the wall of plastic (27), while keeping substantially the same wall thickness (d), is offset out of the reference plane (22) by an offset (v) and, perpendicularly to the reference plane (22), in the depressions (6) the offset (v) lies in the range of 1.5 to 5 times the wall thickness (d) from the reference plane (22) to the surface (32) of the rear side (29), wherein the grid (30) forms a pattern comprising a multiplicity of grid cells (31) recurring in two directions of the reference plane (22).
