The invention relates to a coating element, a coated fibrous web, and methods for manufacturing the same. The invention also relates to a particle granule. The coating element comprises a pigment binder structure granule formed from pigment particles and a binding agent and, possibly, additives, the pigment particles being bound to one another through a binding agent. According to the invention, the shape of the granule is essentially rotationally symmetrical, comprising an inner part and a crust part, the density of the inner part being lower than the crust part. The granules can be prepared by spray drying from aqueous slurry that contains a pigment, binder, and possible additives. The shape of the coating elements can be altered by using controlled deformation. They can be flattened, for example, by calendering to form the surface of a desired shape, and attached to the surface of the fibrous web without a separate binder or by adding a small amount of binder only.
