History


The moshav was founded by IDF veterans and Jewish refugees from Egypt on the ruins of the Palestinian Arab village of Bayt Daras,[2] and was named after the Giv'ati Brigade of the IDF, which stopped the Egyptian Army from entering Israel from the south in the 1948 Arab–Israeli War.[3]


Economy


Pashut Yarok ("Simply Green") is a Giv'ati-based company that has developed and manufactures Shock Pad, a shock-absorbing, water- and fireproof material uniquely produced from discarded polyethylene, currently used in playgrounds and with the potential of being used as insulation in house construction.[4]
