The purpose of this article is to consider the concept of "polymer concrete", its classification, features of its use, role in modern construction and the likelihood of replacing traditional building materials. Also studied and structured theoretical material on the topic "concrete based on polymer binders", classification of polymer concrete according to V.V. Paturaev ,practical experience of its application. The possibility of using polymer concrete in modern realities and in the future is considered. General conclusions are made about the expediency of its widespread use from a practical and economic point of view.
