The current technology of Portland cement, developed in the 20th century, has many disadvantages. First of all, the durability of this material is questioned in many scientific studies. At the same time, its production has an adverse environmental impact, which includes both the emission of a very high amount of CO2and highly toxic nitrogen oxides as well as the overwhelming consumption of energy and natural resources. The most promising alternative solutions are technologies based on geopolymers. They have a significantly lower carbon footprint than traditional construction materials. One of the limitations for the wide use of such materials is their relatively low brittle fracture behaviour. Nowadays, one of the most important research areas is the improvement of their mechanical properties. To improve this mechanical properties it is possible to reinforce the matrix by fibres addition. The main objective of the article is to analyse the possibilities of using new composite for practical applications, especially in building industry.
