The invention discloses a method for manufacturing half-dry mold-pressed honeycomb carboards, which comprises the following steps of: (1) preparing starch glue; (2) preparing mixed pulp; and (3) processing honeycomb carboards. In the method for manufacturing the half-dry mold-pressed honeycomb carboards, waste carboard paper, agricultural stalks, waste textiles and the like can be recycled. In the manufacturing method, the total solid content in the mixed pulp is about 50 percent; compared with a wet processing method, the method has the characteristics of energy conservation and water conservation; and compared with a thermosetting processing method, the method has the characteristics of no aldehydes, zero emission, no toxin, no pollution and the like. The honeycomb carboards processed by the method have the characteristics of light weight, strong compressive resistance, waterproofness, moistureproofness, rot resistance, anti-mildew, anti-moth, and fumigation-free moth removal, have excellent processability such as capacity of being sawed, nailed and glued and the like, and can be widely applied to products such as heavy duty pallets, heavy duty packing boxes, light walls, decorative boards, furniture and the like.
