The invention concerns an optoelectronic component, in particular an optoelectronic component adapted to be surface-mounted, comprising a housing body (2), an optoelectronic semiconductor chip (3) arranged in particular in a recess (6) of the housing body, and electrical connections (1A, 1B), the semiconductor chip being in electroconductive connection with the electrical connections of the conductor network. The housing body (2) is made of a sheathing material, in particular a plastic material, filled with a filler material having a high degree of reflection in a wavelength range less than about 500 nm.
