Antimicrobial granules comprising granular materials coated with antimicrobial metal agents for use in various surface coating and grouting materials are provided. The antimicrobial granules have utility in imparting durable, safe, inexpensive and powerful antimicrobial properties to materials into which they are incorporated, such as epoxy coating and grouts for surgical theaters, public washrooms, and food processing plants. The granules further are capable of imparting a timed-release dosage of antimicrobial agents so that the effectiveness of the coating is palpable for extended periods.
