utilising some kind of peroxide solution
Very true, but normal peroxide ( eg hairdressing, etc ) would probably be too strong, and might irritate the delicate skin in the external meatus.
For many years I have recommended "
Exterol" drops, either for treatment or prevention of wax compaction in ears. They contain a small amount of hydrogen peroxide, which effervesces oxygen when in contact with wax. This not only softens the wax, but tends, gradually, to break little bits off too. Very often syringing is not required at all. Once the ears are clear of wax, further build-ups can be prevented or minimised by occasional use of the same drops.
Available at pharmacies ; approx £2 for an 8ml dropper bottle.
