The present invention relates to a hydrophobic antimicrobial agent comprising a mineral material, which is surface coated with a copper and/or silver salt of at least one fatty acid, a method for its manufacture, wherein at least one fatty acid and at least one copper and/or silver salt are dissolved in a non-aqueous solvent, the solutions are combined, the copper and/or silver salt of the at east one fatty acid is precipitated by adding water, separated, and surface coated onto the mineral material. Furthermore, the present invention relates to the hydrophobic antimicrobial agent obtained by said method, the use thereof as a filler, products comprising the hydrophobic antimicrobial agent, and the use of a copper and/or silver salt of at least one fatty acid for surface coating a mineral material.
