Abstract
Disclosed is a panel for covering a surface of a room, having a panel element, which extends in a longitudinal direction and a transverse direction, for transferring use loads introduced from a top side of the panel element to a bottom side of the panel element facing the surface of the room, wherein the top side is spaced from the bottom side in a thickness direction, and having a locking hook, projecting from the panel element in the longitudinal direction, for latching into a receiving groove of another panel, wherein an end face reference plane of an end face of the panel element extending away from the locking hook is inclined relative to the thickness direction, thereby forming an obtuse angle with the locking hook. The obtuse angle between the locking hook and the end face reference plane allows for a seep-resistant and fracture-proof panel.
