The invention relates to a light epoxy foam-based sandwich plate. The plate comprises an exterior panel, an epoxy foam core and an inner skin from outside to inside in sequence, and the epoxy foam core is formed by foaming an epoxy foam-based composite material which is prepared from a two-component system with a component A and a component B at the weight ratio being 100:(30-80), wherein the component A is prepared from 100 parts of epoxy resin, 5-20 parts of flame retardant, 1-10 parts of foaming agent and 0.5-1.5 parts of coupling agent, and the component B is prepared from 1-100 parts of curing agent, 1-10 parts of foaming agent, 0.5-5 parts of flame retardant and 1-10 parts of curing accelerator. Accordingly, the plate is prepared through a secondary on-site foaming process method, byconducting foaming after placing is conducted for 4-24 h at room temperature, reacting is conducted for 1-3 h at 110-140 DEG C, and secondary foaming and curing molding are conducted. Accordingly, integrated completion of filling, encapsulation and bonding can be achieved, the epoxy foam-based sandwich plate is easy to mold and is not limited by the sandwich plate shape and type, the thermal insulation, sound insulation and flame retardant properties are achieved while weight lightening is achieved, no toxic gas is generated in the case of fire, the good environmental-friendly performance isachieved, and the plate can be used for densely populated places.
