Abstract: The invention relates to surfaces of objects, in particular containers for receiving liquid, comprising a surface which is extremely hydrophobic and to a method for producing said surface. The invention relates in particular to the suitability of an extremely hydrophobic surface of this type for use in the pouring area of a container for receiving liquid and/or on the inner wall area of a container of this type, whereby liquids can also mean those liquids which already exhibit viscous behaviour (e.g. honey), or are pasty or thixotropic (e.g. ketchup or mayonnaise). The extremely hydrophobic surface can be configured on different materials, such as metal, glass, plastics or ceramics and is also suitable for mass-produced goods and for covering all geometrical shapes.
